take it to a profesional. i have done it, but its hard to explain. you would need pics, but what i can tell you is start from the centre from underneath.

1 undo screws in wheelarchs and if mudflaps fitted remove!
2 undo 4 bolts inside boot under taillights, behind carpet side panels
3 undo plastic clips along top of bumper 6 of i think!
4 unscrew screws under bumper ( in centre underneath towbar cover )

Good luck

I had to remove the bumper bar so I can remove my tow bar pack. I followed this thread.

I took pictures as I went - except the screws under the bumper bar, but they are obvious.

These are the locations for the screws:
