Got it done today. I have a hoist so its much nicer to get at bottom bolts on facia. Had to shim headlight on drivers side to get proper alignment of hood. There is also 4 bolts on a brace just inside of front wheel wells. You can access them by turning wheels out. Loosened them, pulled down on rad support then tightened them while holding to get proper hood alighnment. Cleaned debris and topped up coolant bottle while I had facia off.. I put it back myself but it would be easier with 2 people.
