oh and i found these instructions to get to the bulb in another thread.

looks like you don't have to pull the bumper.

your car sounds pretty hooked up from the signature. Can you post some normal pics of your ride??

When you say corner bulb are you refering to the side marker light?

If so that is easy to replace.

Turn your wheel inward, remove the fender lining, then reach up and turn the bulb socket to replace the bulb.

Curious if your guessing here or you saw them drop the bumper , I just used Shibumi1's great write up to do this myself in about 20 min and from what I can tell, dropping the bumper would not even give you access to the area that the bulb resides in. Its on the top outside of the headlight assembly, from what I saw the dealer would access this the same way I did which is through the grille and the pull down plastic panels etc all look like they were made for access this way. It should be a 1/2 hour tops for a dealership to replace the bulbs on both sides. Taking the top engine covers off was more than half the time it took to do this.

Maybe they did it that way, but were doing other work for you that required dropping the bumper

The bottom pic looks like the regular 9006/9007...

Which set you put in for the Nike light? Top or bottom??

Autoback removed their web link, here is another link to Piaa manufacturer:
