is there any wayy to take out a 03 civic lx grill without taking off the whole front bumper

 

No.

 

I've done it a couple times. I don't know about with the radiator support, since I don't have one.

 

It's possible but it's not easy or fun. I've swapped my grill three times (am, oem, am) without removing the bumper. I didn't bother using the radiator cover/shroud when installing the aftermarket grill, though. It makes reinstallation a real pain.

I have an EX, but I don't think that matters...

 

to remove front bumper you need to remove only 2 bolts, then pull the front bumper from the body. It is difficult only at the first time man.

 

It would help to remove the two screws at the fender bracket too, then popping the bumper out of the fender brackets and working from there.

 

i was just wanting to take out the grill without the bumper so i can make my own grill and i didnt want to have to take the whole bumper off

well as said you can take your grill out without taking off the bumper....but it's a complete pain and takes about 5 minutes if that to take the bumber off your car. So I would just do that and not worry about it.

you can get to it like this....


.. you dont need to take off the headlights

 

there is also clips underneath so if you're removing the bumper those clips gotta be removed too. ovni seems like he has the least amount of work to do.
