Hey,
I discovered a very easy way to remove the outer most plastic plugs that hold the top side of the front bumper cover to the bumper itself. Instead of trying to pry them loose from under the headlight and risk damaging the bumper cover. Just go underneath. You can see where the bottom of the plugs go through the bumper under the car. Take long rod, socket extension, dowl rod, ect, line it up with the bottom of the plug and hit it with a hammer. Boom, pops right out.
I had tried prying mine up for about 5 min with no luck, did this and both of them were out in 2 seconds.
Just some FYI for a FMIC install.
