Default 981 BGTS front bumper removal?

I haven't looked closely at what it takes but I plan to add grill inserts to my 15 BGTS to keep the leaves and debris from doing damage.

I am sure it is not too difficult but any advice experiences would be nice. Nothing came up while searching so I figured I would ask here first.

Thx in advance.

Thanks.

There is also a video on youtube for 991. Looks similar.

The zunsport inserts don't need bumper removal.

I've had the bumper off mine, it is the same as as 996> 911.
