    need to pull the front bumper to add a pair of stealth lights and recovery points. All the videos on Youtube show removeing the 10mm bolt and then just pulling on the side and working your way around. Is there a pry tool or best way to do this to avoid breaking any of the tabs? Seems like some folks are saying some of those tabs can get broken, and then the bumper wont stay flush when it is put back on. Just trying to make sure I am doing it the right way :)

    I'd pry it a bit with a plastic tool and spray a bit of wd40 before pulling, to make it easier
