If you can take off the front and rear bumper, sideskirts, drill a hole, you should be fine.
U HAVE TO DRILL HOLES TO INSTALL THE STOCK KIT?? HOW MUCH WOULD IT BE IF I PAYED TO INSTALL IT? PEACE
didn't it come with directions? where did you get it from...online? its not hard to install at all...don't waste money having someone else do it unless you don't know how to use tools at ALL....and yes you need to drill holes into your stock front/rear bumpers to install the kit....its not hard....
its sooooooooooooo easy to install, just be sure to follow the instructions and use the templates that came with the kit, and have a drill handy..any drill will do.
jrsy where are u from? in nj because i know someone at the dealer who installed mine for 75$ at the dealership after hours...
go to www.accordcompany.com
there is a section that shows you hw, complete w/ pics!
Just go to hparts and click on the instructions link. You can see for yourself how easy it is. I haven't installed mine yet, but I'm going to try installing it with a friends help within the next few weeks. Good luck with yours and post some pics when you get it on.

Do you mean the clip in the wheelwell or the 2 clips on each side near the lights? I had trouble with the 2 clips on each side near the lights. In the instructions they say to use a clip remover, I don't know what that is though.

For the ones in the wheelswell I just took a screwdriver and popped them out. It's kinda tricky doing this without scratching the bumper, so be careful.

After that (and you just have the 4 clips remaining) I pushed the bumper away from the car, using moderate force. I ended up breaking on of the clips on the right side though, so I had to go to a honda dealer and buy one for around $3.

This was the hardest part of installing the oem body kit imo. But it's still not that bad.
i wiggled and pulled the bumper trying to get those clips off...i kno..i got lucky..
