pulling off front bumper cover

What all needs to be removed to get the front bumper cover off?

I have a small dent right at where it meets the quarter panel and want to straighten it out a little.

Yeah there are pushpin things that hold the fender to the front of the car underneath, 4 in the front and i think 2 or 3 on the sides near the wheel wells. Then on the inside ont he sides of the bumper cover there are like 4 bolts u need to take out, then voila.

They most certainly will dent and crack...my car was hit in a parking lot and dented the front bumber and fender where they meet. Broke the fog lamp bracket, turn signal lens and cracked the bumper cover in the dent. Cost $1200 to fix cause the MF did not leave a note or anything. Looks like they backed into my car and did not know they hit it and just kept pushing until it crunched...then they took off.

OP...Sorry I don't know how to get it off though.
