Default Rear Bumper Cover removal

A while ago the weather stripping around the tail gate got ripped off on our RX350 from moving stuff around and it never got fixed. It's not ripped off completely but it hangs loose like the sleeve of wizard... And by now that rubber got all deformed and stretched so I think the only way to fix it is to get new weatherstripping. But upon inspection I realized that some of it goes under plastic panels that are on the taillights and under the bumper cover.

So how hard is it to remove the bumper cover? Is it pretty straight forward(just a few screws/clips)? Or do I need to know something ahead of time? Also maybe a manual with some pictures would be helpful if someone has it.

Nevermind, the weatherstripping just needs to be tucked in a little bit. No need to remove the bumper.
