No.. you can remove the fogs without taking the bumper off... you don't even need to jack the car up if it's not lowered... if it's lowered you'll need to stick it on axle stands... or you can take the bumper off...

or you can just drive your car onto some wood / bricks etc so you can get under it

There is only 3 10mm bolts to undo for the fog lights. Then you just need to unclip the plug :) should take about 10 minutes to do both sides max.

As above, I just jacked the car high on one side, then was able to get to it from underneath. Once you have jacked it, you'll easily be able to see where they are and how to do it. Took me 10 mins to do both. Easy.
