headlight removal question

Is it possible to remove the headlight without taking off the bumper?

I want to polish and repair one of the mounts.

THE C350
Nope but the bumper comes off easy I can get both lights out in about 15 minutes (had to do it a few times when I did my retrofit so I got good)

Managed to repair the mount without removing the bumper.

I had to remove the intake deflector gave me room to work on the broken mount.

after removing the 2 bumper cover bolt in the front near the headlight and the one bolt on the broken mount.. I was able to fuse the plastic back together. I used the product call Q-bond. it fuse the mount and reinforced it. seems to be holding well so far.
