there might have been, but our how tos kind of deteriorate after time.
from what i know, you do have to at least turn your tire and take the fender shielding out

nope, but it would probably help when you do your harsh negotiations with the airbox when it's all broke free
sorry i don't have any pictures in that how to, if you took some as you did it that'd be pretty sweet so i could add them to the resource. i don't know what size bolts they were or where they all were lol

It definitely helps to pull the tire, fender liner and the bumper off partially. I learned that it's easier that way the second time I did it.

the stock air box is a pita to get off but it will be worth it.
I had to take off my front headlight to get to a bolt to take off.

hes posting possible websites that you can upload pictures to, for free, that will allow you to repost them here, w/o resizing them.
i have a photobucket account, its how all my how-tos have pics in the middle of the instructions, instead of in a box, at the bottom of the post.
