It should take you about 20 minutes.
There are 6 12mm (I think) bolts in the front.
2 under the round covers in the front and 4 accessible through the front 3 holes.
3 near each front marker light. (put some blue tape on the fender area near the marker lights where the bumper separates from the fender, otherwise you will scrape the fender with your bumper - ask me how I know
)
Search is you friend

Thank you but the link doesn't showed step by step. Front marker lights mean by the front fenders?
Yes, tape the front lower edge of the front fender with blue tape.
loosen front fender liner
remove 10mm nuts along vertical edge of front fenders
remove 10mm nuts along lower horizontal edge of front fenders
remove access caps from front bumper
remove 12mm bolts (6 total from front)
carefully check while you're following my instructions, It's been a long long while since I've removed my bumper. But I did remove it about a dozen times (headlight mod & constantly breaking my Downforce CF lip
)

Thank you. I'll prob do it this weekend so I'll keep it posted if I need further question
So...why are you removing it?
Headlight mod?
Changing horns? (OEM NSX horns are weak - sounds like a civic)
Changing lower lip?

I need to send the front bumper to get it repaint and clear bra after.
Make sure you have 2 people at the point when you remove it and put it back on.
it is unwieldy, heavy and has sharp edges that will scratch.

which bolt do I need to remove the top bumper?
the only bolts holding on the bumper are at the front edge of the fender and the 6 bolts in the front. There are no attach bolts in the hood area. It just makes it easier to handle the bumper with the hood open
Thank you! Got it off
