take off the weather strip on top of the bumper and there will be 5 screws. in each wheel well you will have about 3 10mm screws that you need to remove. under the car the splash shield attaches to the front of the bumper with about 10 bolts.

its really not that complicated.

btw you have to remove both headlights to get to the clips that are underneath that attach the bumper to the radiator support.

to remove the headlights there are 2 visible screws on top in the engine compartment and there are 2 10mm nuts on the inside of the fender. you have to peel back the plash shields in the wheel well to get to those 2 10mm nuts. its two of them on each side.

just take your time and you will be fine. i took off my front bumper in about an hour without ever doing it before.
