Uh I can't remember off the top of my head it sounds like you got them all. I remember I pulled my headlights out with the bumper so check to make sure nothing is holding the headlights in still.

Crawl under the car & look up. The lower part of the nose has screws too.

You might wanna put those fender nuts back on (at least one per side) to keep the nose from leaning forward, until you get everything else loose.

I could swear the screws under there held the skirt onto the bumper, not the bumper onto the front of the car... but I could also swear their were brackets somewhere down there cause I remember cutting them out.
