If you mean the bumper cover, then there's i think 3 bolts on each side that attach to the fenders and then the rest you'll see at the top where it attaches to the core support. Don't forget to unplug your lights.

Click to expand...

The rear is the same....3 or maybe 4 (it's been a long time) bolt/screws that you'll get to from inside the trunk. The toughest part is getting to the top ones on the bumper cover in the front.
