It just occurred to me that I may as well just lift the cover off my car, remove my bumper and install my lip over the cold months so she is ready to go by spring...

One thing though, I've never removed the front bumper off of our cars, is it hard, easy? Anything i should look out for or be careful about?
I don't know how experienced you are with hands-on work, but honestly the hardest part about the bumper removal is pounding in the little rivets in the wheel well, and actually pulling the sides off from the headlight area (as previously stated, the plastic mounting tabs are very fragile). Other than that, it's just the seven torx bolts up top, accessed judt under the hood.
