Title says it all, How do I remove the front bumper? Need to replace the lower grill with a new factory part.

BigCat: Do I need to remove the bumper to replace that part?

Did a search, did not see anything. Any help is appreciated.

You can access the lower grill without pulling the bumper.. There is a cover down there which covers up your access point. That comes off quite easily and you can simply reach up and do your work for replacement from there...

Yeah, don't sweat the bumper cover removal. It's like a 20 minute job. I've had mine off at least 10 times for different stuff.
