Default DIY headlight washer replace

Hi everyone!
Has anyone replaced the headlight washers? I got body colored ones from Eric at BP and just wondering if the front bumper has to be removed. If it doesn't, any pictures would be great.
thanks as always for any help.

Thanks Tony for the bumper removal DIY's......but want to know if you HAVE to remove bumper to change out the washers.
Seems like I saw something awhile ago but can't find it now.
Thanks!

Thank Jon, RL: "Plenum", they were his great write-ups. IIRC, you will need to pull off the FBC to get to the headlight washers, hoses & clips that hold them in. I pulled off the FBC to install the 3 grills up front and the front inner fender liners, more pics posts 71-89: https://rennlist.com/forums/991/842093-g-g-4.html T

I spec'd this option on my build. The factory missed it, and shipped car with the chrome covers.

The dealership missed it too during delivery prep.

My Cert of Authnticity is correct as is my Maroney sticker.

The dealership received the properly painted washer covers. The old ones pull off, and basically break since they are one-way on only. The newly painted ones just align and pop on with firm pressure from your palm.

Bumper does not get pulled.
