Covers it all, you should not need to modify the rear bumper length as decried in this link.

No not the length but my bodyshop did need to trim the ends ever so slightly where the bumper meets the arch profile. Just a couple of mm for it to fit nicely

Most of the work involved in mine was repairing the side podAnanda getting them to fit so make sure you get a kit in a really good condition otherwise it's quite time consuming
