Is the Razzi kit fiberglass or PU? Because if it's fiberglass and of low quality, it's going to be a biznitch to put on unless you know how to do your own bodywork. You'll have to trim and constantly test fit the bumpers to ensure a good fit. From my experience, PU kits are usually easier to install since you can bend them around a little to get the bumpers to fit (as long as the fitment isn't off by a lot).

And I doubt Honda wanted to change the bumper mounting design for 7G Civics, so both the front and rear ones should be held on by some clips (seen when you pop the hood or trunk) and a few screws here and there. In the front, the screws will probably be up in the fenderwell while the rear should probaby have one up in the fenderwell as well as a visible one on the "inside" of the bumper. Don't forget to check underneath for screws/clips, also.

This is all speculation since I haven't looked at the bumpers on a 7G Civic, but it still should give you a general idea of how it's done. It's not that hard to remove them, but a lot of shops make it seem like HOURS are required to remove the bumpers. Hell, I removed my T2000 front bumper and installed my stock one in about 20-25 minutes.
