I would rather take it off. I need to know how anyway if i'm ever going to replace my headlights.

Its easy to take off the front fascia
Take out the fender liners on both sides. There are four 10MM bolts that need to be removed on both sides. Also you need to detach the wiring harness that is connected on the passenger side that is connected to the black bumper support. There are also a hex screw that holds the front bumper close to the fender right in front of the side markers. There are (2) 10mm bolts up top in the engine bay that need to be done and also the plastic tabs that need to be removed too. Then there are (2) 10mm bolts on the bottom side that are screwed into the frame. Thats it. I think once you get into starting it you will see how easy it is.
If you take your time it should not take you longer than 1 hour for the whole bumper since it is your first time. I am able to get the bumper off with 30min after taking off several fascia already.
