just open your hood,plastic cover in the center front behind the grill take out the plastic clips and a couple of 10mm screws. Then the grill has 4 10mm bolts take those out. not too hard

Yep, that's right from the Service Manual. I've swapped out the grille and it took no more than 15 minutes. When I do it again in the spring, it will probably take less than that since I know exactly how it's done now.

So when are you pulling off the grille to color match it? I want you to show me how it's done.

This weekend if I find time to sand, prime and paint it. It will probably take me 3 days to complete, one step per day.
