Default front bumper removal

Can anyone tell me how to remove the front bumper cover? I got as far as removing the grill, but I would like to know where to unscrew/pop out to get cover out easily.

Do I have to unscrew any bolts in the wheel well?

I think there was a post on this before, but I can't seem to find it. Any help is appreciated :D

Theres like 6 underneath the bumper and 1 on each side wheel well behind that plastic wheel well cover, just push it out of the way and you should see it.

Thanks ashe_WCM :D

The bumper came out pretty easy! It's cool how our cars snap together so seamlessly

on the non RS1.0 you just take the 4 pop tabs off at the top, and then yank it upwards.

On yours I'm pretty sure it's about the same.

Yea except that after I took off the 4 rivet tabs, I was trying to pull the grill up and backed off b/c it seems the 2 tabs on bottom of the grill is kinda sticked to the bumper itself. Is it safe to yank it upward w/o the fear of stripping the paint or worse...break the bottom tabs of the grill? I don't want to break them since they are there to hold the grill in place, right? Thanks again

it's just a snap tab. Should allow you to pull it up without a problem. It should just clikc right back in afterwards.
