Has anyone removed the front bumper on their 2019+ EcoDiesel?

I am looking for instructions, or, a tutorial for the EcoDiesel model.

I followed a YouTube video for a 5th Gen 5.7Hemi model, but when I went to remove the 6 (3x on each side) 18mm bolts securing the frame to the bumper.....I ran into a deviation with the EcoDiesel (not covered on the hemi video) where I believe the intercooler needs to be removed first....

Hoping someone/anyone has already done this, and can lend a hand with instructions.

I can post pictures of where I got stuck, tomorrow.

Following, I would like to remove my front bumper and have it sprayed with bed liner. The black paint used on the rebel bumper chips extremely easily and I have several small paint chips in the bumper while I have only 1 on the painted body panels.

It was hard, but I did it. Had to drop the intercooler to get good access to unbolt the bumper. Also, removed one tow hook to create enough space to work and jiggle the intercooler loose. I can post more pics and steps later.
