after removing the clips and screws...start by pulling the sides loose from the tire well area. If its the first time the bumper has been removed, its probably going to feel like you're gonna break the ****.

i don't pull mine all the way off, just loosen the top and pull it down in the front so you can access everything.

You'll definately have to take off the front bumper to make things much easier. Unless you would like to let it hang as someone else mentioned. Also, be careful about those plastic clips because if you break them. They are rather expensive for each one.

the clips are about 1 dollar a piece

you can "let it hang" but what i like to do is wedge a chair infront of the cars bumper to support it
