There's (2 - one on each side) screws in the upper corners of the bumper where it meets the fender. Remove those. There's (2 - one on each side) 10mm bolts almost right below those screws at the bottom of the bumper. Remove those. The rest is just plastic clips that you can pop out with a flat head screwdriver. I don't know how many off hand and you can just as easily go look for yourself.

If you have never removed the plastic clips before, you want to be careful. They may brake offaround the edges. Plus there are two plastic clips at the top of the front bumper (over the grill). You have to raise the hood to access them.

^ is a good one.

i never put the plastic clips back in the bottom and i lost one of the bolts for the fenderwall area

anyone know where to get a replacement?

but overall it's really pretty easy to get off. my was kind of a stretch to get back on, though.

EDIT: and here's how to get out the headlights:

just use zipties. haha

removing the bumper is really easy.. took me abt 30 mins the 1st time figuring it out... n then after it takes only 10 or so mins.

just be careful with the plastic clips... if u happen 2 break/lose some.. just use zipties.

mine only has 3 bolts and no clips, so with a socket and a power drill i could probably do mine in 30 seconds

if you do it enough you get pretty good at it. i know i've done it in the dark with no help of additional lighting. its almost second nature now.....pretty sad.
