Install Injen w/o removing bumper?

Is there anyway to install an Injen CAI without removing the bumper? I was in an accident a while ago and they used some kind of crazy ass connectors that makes taking the bumpr a pain in the ass. Any info appreciated.

Thanks,

Joe

most likely not since it's not possible to maneuver the pipe and air filter through any holes because there are none large enough to do so.

Yes it's possible. I installed my AEM cai without removing the bumper. You will have to unclip the bottom part of the wheel well to put the filter on.

Just run it short-ram bro. The Injen's come in two pieces....run it short-ram and you wont need to worry about the bumber at all.

I agree, short ram is the way to go for less headaches. easier to tell when u need to clean or replace the filter also. Had one in my civic, didn't worry about removing bumpers and rain/puddles, etc.
