I didnt but it would have been easyer if i would have. i had to remove the hood lock thing out of the way to get to the screws.

I didn't remove the whole bumper, I just undid the top part and teh screws in the fenderwell. The bumper just folded down.

It was a bit of a struggle but not too hard.

Yep, it's amazing how easy it is to remove the bumper. You can do it w/o removing it though. It will take longer if you don't, so you may as well remove it to begin with....
