I got my grill back from the body shop. It looks great. They charged me 50 bucks. I couldnt beleive the other shop wanted to charge me 200. Anyway, He finished painting it yesterday, is it ok if I put it on today or should I let it sit for anohter day, or mayb late tonight. The paint seems dry, I wanted to put some sealent on it to protect it, but my neighbor told me to wait a few days. Is this so or can I just put it on and put the sealent on. And how tha hell do I take the grill off.

 

there are 4 clips on the top section of the OEM grille. remove them..

2 square clips (1 in each upper corner) which look like <->. you need to turn the 2 square clips so they look like [\]. use a flathead screwdriver for this..

look from the engine side of the grille and it you will see about 8 tabs...push down and pull the grille outwards - but one section at a time. i.e. push the left tabs out while pulling the left side of the grille out.. this part is tough, and you might feel like something is going to break..but i have yet to hear of anyone breaking anything while removing the grille.

 

The clips that you talk about on top, I took those off, but then there seem to be one in each side that holds the grill on the bumper. What do I dow ith those. I took all of the clips on top off and then there are 2, like I said that are hidden inside, what do i do? Anyone have pics?

 

Guys, can anyone help with taking off the two square clips on the grill on the top 2 corners. I have tried everything, I just cant seem to do it without braking anything. Anyone?

 

You have to push the tabs and pull the grill outwards towards you at the same time.
