CF splitters question

If I have my front bumper wrapped in clear vinyl and I wanna install
the CF splitters, do I have to remove the vinyl, and then install the
splitters? and then wrap it again?

My guess is that adhesive will work just fine on the clear bra and might actually make it easier to remove the splitters if you so choose.

I think you may want to install the splitters first. They fit pretty snug on the bumper and I'm not sure if a wrap may affect that. Also you can wrap the splitters and protect them too.
