IIRC, theres a few clips near the center of the car in front of the radiator/engine bay with the hood up, a screw/bolt on each side inside the fender wall(take out fender liner), and some misc. clips underneath.

I don't know about a BE, but I'd imagine the same as a BG. I have to remove the headlights and grill, then remove all the clips along the top of the bumper cover. Undernead the car, there are some more clips running along the cover in the front, as well as some screws/brackets in front of the wheels(behind the plastic wheel well covering).

Like speedwagon said.. but you don't have to touch headlights.. or foglights.. just unplug foglights harness cables so you don't damage em when you drop.
