To install the Curt front mount hitch receiver, part # C31056 on a 2006 Jeep Commander there isn't any trimming of the fascia. However, you do need to remove the tow hooks if your Jeep has them. In order to remove the tow hooks the grill and front bumper cover must be removed during the install and then reattached afterwards and some holes will be drilled in the Jeep's frame to mount the hitch.

If you don't have the front tow hooks this won't be necssary but instead you will need to enlarge some holes in order for the bolts to fit through them so you can use the fishwire technique.

I've attached the install details for you on this page that outlines the entire install process. Both methods are covered whether you have the factory tow hooks or not.
