You need to take the bumper off to replace it. It's not a very difficult process. Here's some of DIY links that should give you all the info you need:

Some of these are angel eye DIY's, but the bumper removal info is just what you'll need.

I did it without taking the bumper off but I wouldn't say it was easy. In hind sight you really probably should just do it the right way by taking the bumper off. It can be done though
