I'm in the process of going kouki on my hatch as well and I second the purchase of bracketry. But one thing I want to point out is the convoluted notion of reusing chuki bumper supports (aka. crash bar). I was definitely not able to get the kouki bumper fitted correctly with the original crash bar, as the bar itself is way to thick, and it ends up interfering with the bottom vents on the kouki bumper.

I'm still trying to find a workaround for this problem, and trying to avoid removing the crash bar completely as many people running kouki bumpers currently do.
