With an Xenon kit, I believe that its all taped up.. I could be wrong, but from what I have seen the front is taped..

I think on the Xenon kit it's all one piece. The sides and rear are bolted on (I could be wrong on the rear as well). I've looked at it many a times and I can't find where the kit would end and the bumper would start .

The sides and rear aren't too hard to do as long as you have a friend to help you. Just clean that part of the car from dirt and wax. Pull a little piece of the tape from each of the sides and gently press into the body. Then slowly pull the rest of the tape off and press it into the body. Then use the included screws on the inside to finish attaching it. The front is done the same if it's not a Xenon. If it is, then remove the whole front bumper and replace. I can't give details, since I haven't done this yet . But I have seen body kits put on and know whats involved.

Heres some more info on it at Wings West.

There are some pictures of the Xenon kit not painted, showing how much of the front is actually the kit..

I dunno, I'll have to see it in my hands to believe it.

I know the top part of it is taped.. And most likely the bottom will have some sort of bolt in it to hold it on..
