Do I have time? My grill finally came in the mail and I want to put it on. My buddy is taking pictures for me after work too.

How is it done?

 

6 little clips above grill
plus taking off bumper to get to screws underneath the grill which are hidden without taking off bumper

 

****, I didn't think I would have to remove the bumber. You're right.

:/ Oh well easy enough. Thanks!

no problem

very easy, once you get a bit of time

 

Okay, so the OP is long gone by now, but I'll type up the directions here as best as I can anyway.

Remove the front bumper
- Turn your wheel all the way to one side.
- Pop the hood.
- There will be one Phillips tip screw in the upper corner of the bumper in each wheel well. Remove those.
- There will be two (forgot the size) bolts on the bottom of the front bumper, in the middle, around a foot apart side to side. Remove those.
- There will be five clips along the top of the grille and two just to either side. Remove those with a flat head screw driver.
- If you have fog lights, reach behind the bumper for the plugs and unplug them each now.
- Now go to either side of the bumper. Pull out on the sides to free them from the wheel wells.
- Walk to the front of the car and grab the bumper near the grille. Pull the bumper off. Set it aside.

Remove the grille from the bumper

To remove the grille look where it meets the bumper. There will be three Phillips screws and two metal clips. The clips will come off easier with a flat head screw driver to carefully pry them out.

The grille should easily come off now.

Installation is the reverse of removal.
