When you thinking of mate? I've done mine enough times.

Remove grille
Remove lights
Remove all clips (x14 if I remember right top and bottom)

The hardest one I find to get to are the ones are the back side top of the bumper as you need to get in there. I used a 4mm flat head to get the clips out.
