I'm finally installing the votex bumper that I bought way back. I lost my instructions and am trying to figure out how to install the little round turns that go benieth the headlights. Do they just pop in?

Yes they just pop in however, part of the radiator support/shroud behind the bumper has to be trimed.
Try test fitting the bumper first. Using a sharpie, mark the signal light hole.
Remove the bumper and trim that area with a dremel tool.
It's plastic so it shouldn't take too long and it's easy to do.

Also, I would recomend getting LED Bulbs for those lights.
The less you have to remove them, the better.

Thanks. I already had the shroud cut from test fitting in before I got it painted. I was unable to find anything that said how the round signals fit in any of the right-ups I found. Thanks again for the tip.
