Which order should I install these mods in?

Going on this weekend. 2013 g37xS sedan

Takeda long tubes, morimoto headlights, morimoto led fog assembley, led turn ( with resistors) and parking lights.

What order should I do this install in?
Read about a few people installing takeda through the grill. My only hesitation about removing the bumper is that it wont sit flush like factory after reinstalling but it will probably make it easier to install everything with it off.

I took a look at the bumper removal sticky and was wondering do the fogs just stay connected to the bumper?

Im very comfortable working on cars, but Any insight would be great! Thanks in advance.

going through the black plastic tray might be worth a shot. Its a pita taking the tabs that hold the cable but not bad.

I would do this all at the same time with the bumper off so first do the headlights and fogs and also the will stay on the bumper and is really easy to disconnect. After do the Intakes before you put the bumper back in just make sure to do it right or get someone to do it. I paid a loca mobile mechanic 75 to take out the bumper and 75 to put it back in usually at a mechanic shop it's around 100 just to take it off I believe

Cover where the hood latch is when you open up the hood.

Bumper off all the way... its pretty easy to get on and off. I tried swapping fogs with the bumper on and it was a no go, especially on the passenger side. Should also give you more room to work with the intake as well. You will need to unpin and peel back the wheel well to get to the headlights anyway which will expose the "hidden" bolts that need to come out to drop your bumper. It helps to have something like a shoebox or a small cooler for the bumper to rest on after you pop it off and go to unhook the fogs.
