I didn't when I trimmed mine. I did put a piece of plywood between the front grill and the fender just so I wouldn't hit the front grill with the saw. I had to pop the plastic fastener off on the front to slip the piece of plywood in

Took off my "Sport" stickers and replaced them with some Maryland Jeep Stickers! It was a real pain in the ass to get the second sticker off... first one came right off tho. I used Goo Gone Sticker Lifter from pepboys.

A lot of whaaamp whaaamp with this air intake. Also, I may have gotten my ECU "tweaked". It was part of the deal for the air intake, which was purchased way under retail. It feels peppier, but not really sure since I only have a 1000 miles on it and haven't really been flooring the jeep all over town. I think I'm gonna let a guy with a stock jeep drive it and see what he thinks.
Oh yeah, and no swimming with this set up.
