I believe there is one on top as well. Just take your time and look everywhere that a bolt could be. It is very easy, but if you miss one, it'll only make it harder. Did you also take out the two plastic pieces that are under the headlight? The piece that the bumper snaps in to?

There should be 3 bolts under the hood, near the battery.

2 bolts for the ballast.

1 bolt on the side of the headlight (closest to the door) holding the plastic tab of the headlight and the metal bracket.

1 bolt near the front (radiator), under the DRL (or foglight if you have an 04-06), which, is the most annoying to get to. This bolt is coming straight out at you.

1 bolt slightly to the right of the one mentioned above, which is coming out to the right.
