Default 2.3 cabrio cambelt change

Hi from a newbie!
I need to change the cambelt on my 2.3 cabrio (1993). Is it possible to do this without removing the front bumper etc, or is there just room to withdraw the crankshaft pulley without doing this.? I can get at the nut on the end of the pulley, but it looks a bit tight.

Many thanks
