question on installing skyline bumper

The guy at the body shop told me that in order for the bumper to fit properly, he is going to have to cut off some bracket under the bumper. Is he correct? How hard would it be to install this by myself?

I just had my skyline body kit put on, at a local body shop. THey had to cut supports out of the bumper to make it fit. And they had to cut out the corner lights more because they would not fit either. And finally they had to cut the sides of the kit and extend them to make them actually fit my fenders. I can email you pic's of mine if you like.

Thanks guys.... i just received my Skyline body kit from Wicked Designs. It's the all urethane version and a slightly different front and rear and a different design for the sides. I'll let you guys know how my kit goes but the side need some trimming already and i need to cut slots to fit my bumper lights.
