Question Super quick aspec kit question

Hey all
I checked out the 3G garage, and the install thread for the aspec kit, but I wasn't able to tell 100%...is the kit a replacement of the existing pieces (front bumper, rear bumpers, side skirts) or is it just a piece that attaches to it?
Thanks in advance

The A-Spec skirts attach to the original bumpers. Drilling is required.

I'm about to get the A-Spec upgrade and the word "drilling" just hurts. Its like I'm gonna take my baby in to get raped or something.

Just to keep things clear, the front and rear skirts are attachments that will require drilling (sorry, I couldn't find a better term to make vandido happy. ) and adhesive tape.

The A-Spec side skirt replaces the original and just uses clips and self tapping screws.

Just added to what "datmrman" said,

The front under spoiler, the drilling was done under the car, so it is possible that you can remove front spoiler and the front bumper will look like original.

But I can't think of a reason why you would want to remove them, because they looks great !

If you gonna install yourself, just take your time to make sure everything is right before you start drilling.
