Bumper removal?

What is the easiest way to remove the front bumper on our cars? I have done it before but it was a huge pain because the fender had to be taken off. Is there any easier way?

Sure. All I had to do was remove the 5 or 6 10mm bolts on the top of the bumper that connect by the hood latch. Then remove the 3 10mm nuts on the bumper sides by using a 10mm extension or two and going in under the wheel wells. You can take the front wheels off and kinda pull back the plastic wheel well covering then you can get to the nuts. If you still have brake ducts I think there are a few bolts and nuts to get at there too. All in all is shouldn't take very long at all. Just try not to break any of the old bolts off.
