Default Removal Front Bumper

Hey guys, how much work is it to take off the front bumper of an 03 GT? Is it hard to line it back up when reinstalling? I'm asking because I'm installing a CryO2 (CO2 fogging) cooling system and wanted to make it easy on myself by having plenty of working space. Thanks! I'll post pics of the install next weekend.

Its not hard at all. You remove the headlights (that are simply clipped in), remove a small screw in the front fenders, and remove some push pins from the bottom. Then the hardest part is just maneuvering your hand and arm behind the bumper to remove two nuts on each side that hold the bumper in place. My cars lowered and I did not even jack it up, I just got my head as far in as possible, haha, and contorted my arm up into the well and slowly unbolted each bolt while cursing profanity as much as possible. Then you just twist it here and there and yank it off. Putting it back on is the same, nothing to really line up as it will fall into place where you had it before when you get it seated back into position.

Oh and you have to detach the grille from the body, I have a grille delete so this was simply two pop off screws for me.
