How do you remove front bumper cover on 2015 SR5

[Mason4Runner15]

I am installing a bull bar on a 2015 SR5 and need to remove the front bumper cover to get at the bolts.

Is there an easy way, video, or at least instructions how to remove the bumper cover (without forcing or breaking anything)

Not sure why you would need to remove the bumper cover. I installed a bull barr on a 2014 SR5 with the cover in place. The room is tight to get to the bolts but not difficult.

if it is anything like the '10-'13, then pull on it like it is going to break....

[MENTION=4307]matoolie[/MENTION] did it in a thread about replacing fog lights with an LED housing, I think commented that it pops right off, maybe he could chime in?

I was able to remove the three bumper bolts on the passenger side, but I am unable to get enough space to install the new bracket/bolts without removing the bumper cover. If you have been able to do it without removing the cover, please share the secret.

I was able to remove them by using a small socket/ratchet and a ratcheting box wrench. To remove the bolts start and the bottom and work your way up. Don't fully tighten the brackets until the bar is mounted. It is slow going. At one point it was so tight the ratchet was only going one click at a turn. I did not have to remove any plastic of any kind.

This literally was my problem. Read this, tugged like a MF from the sides and it came.
