Bronch, sweet ride. Congrats!

I see you added the LCI cosmetic package - any trick on getting the old orange deflectors out? It's the only thing I have left to install and I can't get the deflectors to budge by pushing on them from the outside.

TIA - Sean

Thanks. No trick, just a firm constant pressure and patience. I removed the 2 screws on the inside fender rather that just the 1 in the IND DIY here , so that I could get my hand behind the reflector. You need to push harder than you think and just consistently then it gives way. It's a rubber adhesive holding it on. Start on one end and you'll notice it start to peel, but be careful to keep one hand behind it so that it doesn't fall into the pit of despair. Be sure to run your finger around the inside and peel off any old adhesive then I used a microfiber cloth with EtOH to clean it up.
