dead easy!

It's all torx screws, but 2 sizes - I forget which.. perhaps 40 and 45.

Open bonnet, unscrew and remove grill.
IIRC, that exposes bumper screws. Then there's a row underneath at the font, and some in the leading edges of the wheel arches.
If you've got fog lights, you'll want to unplug them!

Pop a padded thing on the floor for when you lift it off.

A 2nd pair of hands holding the other end saves paranoia about scratching the wing, and is handy (though not strictly necessary) when refitting.
