Default Wat up with the front bumper removal

yo I have a 93 accord ex and I am trying to remove the front bumper but stuck because of the headlights man wat a pain. First thing is removing the two bolts off the headlights, but the inner screw is so far in and hidden I cannot get to it from any angle can someone help so I can take off these stanking plastic screws that dont even work just annoying. So I need help so I can continue to take off the bumper o is there a better tool to take out these plastic screws also? Thanks for any replies back.

Just pull the whole bumper and support out as one piece and remove the supprt from there.

1 nut on each side of the engine bay. 2 bolts on each side behind the bumper corner lenses. 2 screws on each wheel well. 3 or so bolts on the bottom of the bumper.

To remove the TORX bits? It's a torx bit...or a star bit...they vary in sizes you may need to source the entire torx bit set.
