well for the front and back most likely unless its an add on kit. the sides should be fine. all depends on where you install the kit

The front and back ones will probably have to be re-installed unless you find a mounting location that isn't connected with the bumpers or if you buy a kit that just has add on peices to the original bumpers.

I have an underbody kit, and you can't really see the tubes, except for the front one. But it's only about an inch of the tube on both sides. Nothing major. I actually bolted the sides in on the outside of the frame, facing the center of the car...if that makes sense to ya. *lol* I also used a thin piece of pressure treated wood for the side tubes. I bolted the tubes to the wood, and then right to the frame. The reason why I did that is because if by any chance I do hit a pot hole or a bad bump, instead of the tubes twisting and breaking/shattering...the pressure treated wood will absorb the stress, and not the tubes. wink.gif
