a god link would be very helpful....miraculous, in fact!
removing the front bumper is pretty straightforward and easy. just remove the upper retainer clips (plastic screws) and the lower bolts and clips and pop out. you might want to get a helper to make sure it stays straight and gets lowered to the soft (towel, grass) ground gently. you can probably find a good diagram here: http://www.acuraparts247.com/sunnysi...All&vinsrch=no

apparently i don't know how to spell :-)
miraculous indeed

btw the bottom clips are they as easy to pull out as the top ones, or will I have to get far under the car?

just as easy. all the bolts/clips are very accessible. don't forget the clips in the wheel wells and the one bolt in there also

there is a little splitter type thing on the bottom bumper - you don't have to remove it to take the bumper off, just leave it connected. in other words - don't just unscrew everything underneath.
