2005 ML350 Front Bumper cover removal
Hello all, I just picked up a slightly used '05 ML350 Special Edition. Being the accessory freak I am, I also picked up the OEM Mercedes Chrome bull bar that mounts on the front of the vehicle. To install the bull bar I need to remove the front bumper cover so I can access the supports behind it. Anyone know what bolts/screws I need to remove to get the front bumper cover off? Any illustrations or step by step instructions would be great. Thanks in advance for your help!

I'm getting ready to swap a damaged front bumper on a 2002 ML 320. I'll post pictures as a more descriptive guideline in a few days.
