Got some points:

-Wow, I never knew we had such a huge window washer fluid container!
-I thought from the title that we were gonna get a step by step tutorial with pictures ;( Was interested in removing orange side markers.
-Your car looks like it has a black eye now. Or a racoon

It's not hard at all, 10mm socket is your friend...
If I remember correctly take off wheel well plastics, remove plastic under pan, then you should have access to all bolts you need to remove the bumper.

Having a factory service manual will help you locate all the bolt points.
