A 5mm Allen key removes the 2 bolts holding on the spoiler body.

Remove the 3 Phillips screws on the bumper cover you have uncovered by removing the spoiler.

Remove one Phillips screw in each wheel well, this is up high where the bumper cover meets the body metal.

Remove 6 Phillips screws along bottom edge of bumper cover.

Use a 6mm Allen key to remove the bolt holding each bumperette.

Carefully, with an assistant, pull away the bumper cover, and unplug license plate wiring harness.

You might find it helpful to put the car on stands, I know I did...
I already did everything you mentioned here except remove the plastic cover for the rear spoiler by getting those rivets out. I will try that tomorrow.
