yes there are some plastic clips on the bottom of your grille connected to your bumper.

you don't have to. I got my grille off without taking the bumper off. I really can't remember all the details, but I think i just worked them with a flat head screwdriver from inside the engine bay.

there are phillips screws that hold the bottem of the grill to the top of the bumper, I think there are 3 or 4 of them. the screws screw in upwards if that makes sense at all. The easiest thing to do is just take off the whole bumper and you will see exactly what I am talking about

Remove front H badge

To remove the front honda "H" is not difficult at all.
Just remove the front bumper. The bumper has 4 phillips (star) screws...
2 in the front fender well 2 on the bottom of the bumper.
There are also two bolts that will require a 10mm socket.
Slide out the bumper once all screws and bolts have been taken out.
The "H" is held by 4 smaller phillips screws.
Take off the "H" replace all screws and bolts for the bumper and your done...
