How to remove the front bumper?

Hey guys, I'm pretty new on the website. I was wondering if anybody who has installed the midnight chrome grille has put together a step by step with pictures. I just bought the front sports grille, and want to install it myself to save the 2 hours of labor the dealership quoted me. I have the instructions from the Bernardi website, but it's get a little confusing. How hard is it to take the bumper off? It says to unclip the 11 clips? Not sure exactly where the 11 clips are. Any pictures of how to remove the front bumper with a step by step would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance your help

It's pretty much easy... two screws, one on each side where bumper touching fender, bunch of screws on the bottom. Last step is slowly pup out in perimeter where bumper next to headlights.

Clips secure linefenders to bumper
(pardon for english)

Hope this picture will help

The installation of the block heater may give you enough clues on how to remove the front bumper cover: http://acura.bernardiparts.com/Image...r_BII13386.pdf Its for the 2013 model, I hope its the same for all 4th generation TLs.

Love the screen name too!!!

(by the way, no need to remove the bumper cover if you are installing a block heater...)
