Default T/A Front Bumper Removal....How to?

I've got a little project coming along and I will be needing the remove my T/A's front end. I searched extensively and only found instructions on a red Z28 that someone had posted and I can only assume those are different, but they gave me an idea. Anybody have a link or anything that I can look at? Hell just tell me where all the bolts are if you can

It's not hard.
Drive up on ramps.
Pop open your headlights and pull the fuse.
Start by unclipping all the access panels from underneath. Once you get all the panels off, you will see everything you need to see.
Unhook the wire to the DRL.
Most everything is attached by those clip thingees. Pull the center pin out (but not off) and then just pull the whole pin out.
The hardest part is the screw on each side that bolts it to the fender. The easiest way is through the wheel well liner. Unhook about half the fasteners and pull it back. You will be able to get your hand in there to get at that bolt.
It's really simple. Once you pull those bottom panels off, you'll figure it out.

its easy dude. common sense should be enough. theres 2 backets on each side 10mm bolts, then theres buttons underneath the bumper and the air damming has to be taken apart.
