yeah a couple of bolts, and it almost pops right off, just undo the bolts that hold the bottom of the bumper clip to the braces. You have to pull it to the passenger side to get it to pop out, since there is a small metal bracket that gets in the way when installing it. Once under the car you will see how it works, takes like 10 minutes to swap. Did mine twice now, thats what I get for letting friends drive my car! They don't seem to notice how low the font bumper is.
