On the PF D3, both the wires and pipes run along the bottom of the bumper, within that section below all the grilles. I've highlighted where on your photo in red. As best as I can see from photos on eBay of FL bumpers, the wires and pipes go along the same route.
As for getting to them, I would say the 'easiest' option is to take the bumper off. Getting at the pipes either side of the main grille may be doable, but problematic, as the wires and pipes are all clipped into place, and I reckon getting at them behind the main grille would incur some swearing. Considering the bottom of the bumper extends quite a bit, you'll be reaching in about 6-8 just to reach them.
