removing top grill
How hard is it to remove the plastic grill from the front bumper? Would I need to remove the bumper in order to remove the grill?
|
Well removing the bumper makes it 100x easier but its still possible with the bumper on the car, Just getting your hands behind it to pinch the clips to pull it loose.
|
remove the headlights. allows access to all the tabs, and theres two large plastic screws right by each light.
|
How long should it take to remove with the bumper on? Going to remove it when I take the car to get painted
|
Remove all tabs holding down the grill, then pull it back and unclip each little tab behind the grill then slide it out
|
Ok thanks
|
takes like 5min and a flathead screwdriver
|
Its possibly with the bumper still on, but the two nuts holding the bow tie on are a pain in the ass :cussing: one of my just spun and i had to bend it to get it of, then its just a bunch of clips.
Once you get it off be careful not to brake the cross bar, its quite flimsy |

10 mins if even |
look up the how to if you want but just find all the tabs and pull that sucker out.

i replaced my grille with the tc grille with the bumper on. wasnt hard at all. there are i think 4 pop clips under the hood. then there are like 12 clips on the back of the grille and you have to take off i think 2 nuts to get the bowtie off. then you have to fidget with the grille for a sec to get it off but it isnt hard.

I did the TC grill swap also without taking the bumper off
