Front bumper removal

This is crazy, but I can't seem to remove my front bumper from my 1992. I've removed 4 obvious bolt front the engine compartment and two attachments on the plastic cover to fender, but still no movement. Am I missing more bolts? The front is accidented, so maybe the distorted metal is holding it in place? Thanks for the help.

I'm trying to remove the entire bumper and cover as one unit, not just the cover.

IIRC you have to take out all the small bolts around the edge and a couple hidden behind the turn signals.
