take grill off then theres 3 or 4 bolts across  top of bumper to undo then in each side where the lower grill bits are pop them off and theres a bolt in each side also check wheel arch for bolts and slide off

The above guide is the one I used when I first did it! I just left the grill intact hanging on the securing pin, bumper slides on around it. But as your wanting to install a FMIC you may need it off!

Taking off the front bumper is easy, it was the first thing i had to do when i bought the car  as i had to change a bulb.
