Default '04 GX470 rear bumper removal

Hi everyone,

I just bought a Lexus "pindle" hitch for my '04 GX. I noticed from previous posts that I would need to completely remove the rear bumper in order to install the hitch with 6 screws to the existing hitch bracket. I gave it a shot but wasn't quite successful in finding all the screws and parts I needed to remove in order to get the bumper off. Any detailed instructions I can find somewhere? Diagrams?

BTW, the hitch is the same as the one CivicFerio installed a while back. Here is the link to the picture:

I need to remove the bumper cover to bolt the tube to the frame.

Thanks.
