The best way to find out is to get on your back and take a good look at it. It's probably mostly plastic pop rivets with a couple of bolts. It usually pays about an hour in a shop to remove and install. Expect double or triple as you haven't done it before.

my partner used to be a mechanic and you very rarely need to remove a bumper, in fact he cant remember ever removing a bumper to change a foglight.but difficult to know without knowing what car you have.

Most makes of car have dedicated websites E.G Ford Escort RS owners club,try emailing them for specific advice.

These sites are what my partner uses for specific advice not covered in manuals.
would it not be better to remove light from bumper you replacing bulb or whol elight either way wouldnt need to remove bumper
it varies from car to car so without knowing what model exactly it will be pretty hard to tell you.



Generally the bumper is held on with bolts on the underside.



However, most of the time you don't need to remove the whole thing to change out a fog light.
If you need to change the light bulb just open the bonet and you can access the light from there or refer to your instruction manual.
