Did you remove the front inner fender well and remove the 3 nuts that are aligned with the seam (just outside and above the turn signals). And for GTs, you also need to remove the lower splash shield.

Not sure if the V6 mounts different, but here's a bunch of front bumper files that should help you understand what needs to be removed.

hey man you need to remove the 3 wheel well screws on each side then peel back the splash shield and you will see 2 10mm nuts on each side up near where the bumper gap is, once you remove those on each side and the 2 10mm nuts on top near the headlights pull down on each side in the wheel well area to get it off then the bumper will come off be sure to unplug your turn signals and if you can have someone help you so you don't drop it on the ground etc
