How to replace the amber reflective strips ?

Hey,

So i bought this for our e70 but it came with no installation instructions.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2007-...spagenameZWDVW

I think the bumper needs to be removed. Any idea on how i should go about installing these ? Thanks

Nice! That's exactly where I park when going into Best Buy, by itself.

I actually had to switch back to the stock springs, the H&R's were a bit harsh. They just bottomed out too easily for my DD, the stock shocks just weren't valved for the lower springs.

They are required by the DOT, however no state inspection looks for them. I've had them either covered or removed since 1988 with no problems or any mention of them.
