I did mine without removing the bumper, but you do have to take it loose and pull the bolts, it is a royal pain!!! I also just lifted the intercooler out of the way to get the bolts in the holes... another royal pain. I guess if I had to do it again... I would revisit the idea of removing the bumper and cooler. You also need a really short socket for the torx heads, I used a ball hex (allen) head and broke it off... along with some knuckle skin . That's my "short cut story" Good luck!!!
