Front bumper removal help
I drove too close and up onto one of those concrete parking blocks and when I backed off, it ripped the bumper about two inches up from the bottom. I can fix this but need some advice about how to get the bumper off the car. Anyone know how to do this?

You don't have to take the bumper off to replace the foglight. Just remove the panel underneath the bumper, then you can gain access to the backside of the foglight, remove the 2 screws, and it comes out.

Thanks for your help.
