Installation is easy. Screws under the hood on the very top of the bumper, one in each fender going up in the corners and may have few underneath.
Do yourself a favour and download a service manual. It will have a detailed picture/description on how to remove/install basically any part on your car.

The bumper cover will take you like 5 minutes to remove. There are about 4-6 clips/screws the hold the bumper on from under the car, and the inner fenders screw onto the bumper cover from under the car as well.

5 Minutes to remove the teg bumper? Waaaaaaaah? With the way the bolts under the fender are its a pita if its your first time.
You guys forgot to mention the corner light screws. There is one screw in each corner light, pop those off. And, also your fender liner has a small screw that goes under your bumper at the corner. Its easier if your car isn't lowered. If it is the screws underneath are a pita without a jack lol.
Also, there are clips holding your bumper at the top corners to your fender, be careful with those because they are easy to snap off and become useless, also chances are that the metal around the bumper trim on the corners is rusted, and may become very fragile when pulling it off. Be careful with those.
Have fun!

Re: Bumper installation
Do yourself a favor and spray all the screws and bolts a day before you remove it. It will help you. Use WD40 or a rust penetrant. It takes 5min to take off but like 15min to put on. And make sure you put it on right or it won't align properly.
