Help removing front bumper...

[nowukno]

I've decided to paint my front and rear bumpers. I've done all my research on the sanding/priming/painting process so I'm good there. I removed the rear bumper with ease. The front not so much...I watched a few videos and its recommended to remove the grille and headlights ...no problem. Now time to remove the lower grille shell or whatever it's called in between the bottom bumper and grille. The only problem I've ran into is that my truck (2014 outdoorsman) has factory fender flares so they are wanting to come off with the piece , its seem the are glued on very well (picture below). So is there a way for me to separate the 2 that will still make reinstalling easy or better yet is there a way to remove just the bottom bumper I'm going to paint without all this extra work? I couldn't seem to find a how to..everything i read or watched shows removing it all. Thanks!

The old saying about "sleeping on it" really is true. I think you often come up with solutions as you sleep. Has happened to me many times. I'll wake up early in the morning and something I've been trying to figure out I suddenly have the solution.
