    You have to take the entire bumper off. Once you do, you'll see the tab and slot clips on the back that hold it on. You could probably get it off without taking the bumper off but it would be a pain. I know how it comes off and I still can't get it off without taking the whole bumper off.

    There are 2 bolts I think underneath the truck remove those and then there are 4 blue clips, 1 on either side and 2 in the middle
    These are what they look like:20151229_105151.jpg

    The 2 in the front are a bitch to get to, I ended up breaking them off but my valence fits just fine with out them.
