Bring a tool box, your going to need it. The side skirts are attached by phillips
head screws. The bumpers are attched by phillips head screws and by plastic
rivit type things between the headlights you will need a flat head screw driver for those. Also you will need a socket set. I am not sure how my spoiler is attached because I never had or will mess with it lolz. For the exhaust your are going to need PB Blaster to soak the rusted nuts and bolts
so they will be easier to remove. Here is a good link to remove your front bumper etc.
I would think that the rear bumber is similer. Since I am at work I gave you a quick how to, hope this helps
you.

Pretty much what Glenn said is what you need. Bring a socket wrench and bits with you (the bigger the wrench, the better). Flathead and Philips screwdriver (not the small dinky ones. You need the big heavy duty ones for better grip). PB Blaster for exhaust bolts.

You can buy WD40 at just about anywhere walmart etc. You can get PB blaster at any auto store for a few bucks a can.

I had to parcially remove the front bumper to install my retrofits
Thats too bad that you were to late to get those parts check a website
titled www.car-part.com you type in your car year, make, and model
then to type in your zip code and this will help you find local junkyards in your area that may have the parts that you need. You would type Camry SE since you are looking for SE parts instead of say LE,XLE etc.

Yes that is it in the picture but is does say "image may not be application specific" And I read that it said no spoiler
holes. I would call them at their number listed and specifiy that you want the Camry SE bumper cover and front lip/spoiler. Plus this will need to be painted to match your car.

"Replacement Bumper Cover -- BUMPER COVER, PRIMERED -- Without spoiler holes; A high quality, direct fit OE replacement bumper cover."
. If you have any questions, please call us toll-free at 1-866-828-4322.
