Not afaik, it's really a ten-minute job.
Clips under the wing which need the inner liner, itself held by clips, removed or unclipped at the front and worked out of the way, then you need to decide HOW you want to procede.
It can be done by undoing the two 17mm bolts which lie on the forward members, the bumper will then slide forwards provided all the clips are undone.
You will need to have someone to support it while you disconnect the foglight wiring if fitted and the headlight washer if fitted, (warning: this will empty your washer reservoir unless you have a suitable bolt ready to stick up the pipe).
If you only want the skin off, it's headlights, grille etc off in order to get at the clips.
Same applies and DO be aware that the skin can flex alarmingly on it's own, so be aware and grip it widely spaced.

the clips up in the wing behind the liner are really awkward so as said get these out first. I replaced mine with nuts and bolts to make it easier next time.
and don't forget the clips hiding under the headlights too
