Disconnecting the fog lights, there should be 3 or 4 bolts on each side by the fog lights that connect the bumper to the frame. You will need either deep well sockets, 2-4 inch ratchet extension, or wrenches. And also patience haha it's hard to get them off with the frame and fogs but you'll get it good luck

The hardest part is unclipping the plastic air dam.

I thought the same thing but unclip the air dam and just slide it as far to the right or left to get to the bolts. The two bolts by the vacuum pump were the toughest. Overall it pretty easy and done in less then 30 minutes.
