I have replaced xenon bulbs without removing the bumper. I removed the battery and battery tray on the left side, and I removed the MAF and rubber intake boot on the right side. Have an inspection mirror and light handy, since you'll need them. Handle the multi-finger socket clips very carefully to avoid damage - there was evidence that someone had not in a previous bulb replacement.
Good luck !
