There's also two bolts on the sides of the intercooler covered by those little round caps that you can pop off with a screwdriver or your finger.

There should be 6 bolts (one in each wheel well, one behind the little round pop-outs, two above the radiator) and then the 2 plastic clpis above the radiator and the four clips in the wheel wells (2 on each side). Then just pull the bumper real quick like from each side (careful not to scrape the ground).
