Exclamation Removing The Front Grill
Hey Guys!

I've been looking around the forum for some info on the best way to take out the front grill and replace it with a mugen replica I'm considering buying. I've found a few posts which kinda border around having to take off the whole front bumper, and then others which suggest it's a matter of using a flathead screwdriver and un-doing some clips.

If anyone knows how to do this, and could clarify it for me I'd appreciate it!


Thanks!

Chris

the trim guy i work with says take off the bumper, you can try un doing the top of the bumper and prying it back but along with the clips there are screws holding the grille in so he says the bumper off is way easier

you can remove the black plastic pop in screws that are on top under the hood pull back the bumper that is around the grill area and do that gently....then unscrew 2 phillips headed screws and then you can pull on the grill gently from the front and it pops out..
