If you pull the little clip up on the joint the headlight washer pipes come apart and you can take the bumper away from the car.

Good write up! The only gotcha I had when replacing my grill on my S6 was the headlight washer hose had very little slack, when I pulled the bumper cover off the clips it broke the quick release fitting, you could only pull the bumper cover out about 3-4" before putting tension on this fitting. This quick release hose fitting and two or was it four? wire connectors are the only things holding the bumper cover on, so complete removal is not that bad once you get all the fasteners off.

Sorry, didn't see the last post on the connector! Wish I had know this before I did mine!

Thinking about doing a swap, haven't decided on 2009+ OEM or Dubstop yet. Wish the photos from this write-up hadn't disappeared. Does anyone have them on hand by chance that could repost them or send them to me?
