Default Rear bumper cover removal

I have a busted rear bumper cover on my 2000 Disco II. I have a replacement cover and want to do the work myself. Does anyone know how tough of a job this is or maybe some details on how to do the job?

Thanks Jafir. What a great resource. DiscoMike, I had not crawled under it before posting the thread. I have now and feel a bit foolish. It does look pretty easy. I guess I was a little intimidated by the thought of doing it. Thanks for the help.

It doesn't look that great, better than nothing though.

I took my windshield cowl off when it broke and just left it off. I covered up the inside air intake with some plastic I had so it could still breathe from the bottom but wouldn't get water from the top. Works perfectly.
