To add the mesh behind your bumper do you need to take it off or can you do it without removing your bumper?

as much as it's a pain to take the cover off. You'll get better results if you do.

I didn't remove the bumper and I'm not quite sure how it could have gone any better if I had.

probably easier....

just wear gloves if you don't take off the bumper...

lots of stuff to snag your skin on.

I took my bumber off, mostly because I was adding wiring for my foglights. It was a lot easier though and I can imagine how difficult it will be if it is not taken off and how hurt your hands may get.

You can do a very good job without taking the bumper off if you take your time. I did this to my 05 in about one hour. Taking the bumper off would be overkill.
