Clips at front edges of bumper, beneath REAR of rear wheel arch, can't remember if they pick out or unbolt.

One (IIRC) more under rear edge of bumper.

Six bolts, about 17mm along the "chassis" rails. Remove all clips as above, then the 6 bolts, then the bumper SLIDES out of the chassis rails. Be ready to have someone support it as you disconnect the number plate light.

Just slide under, they are visible without jacking.
