Does anyone know how to remove the grill? I tried searching but had no luck.
Thanks

It does not need explanation. I'm not a DIY kind and it took me 5 minuts to figure it out. Just pop up the hood and look at it for 2 minutes. The solution will come to you

Remove the two plastic push fasteners on the top of the grille, than push the grille at the bottom where it meets the bumper. This will unclip it from the bumper. Now lift the grille straight up..

Thanks! Will have to try it later. Hopefully wont have any problems.
There should be a DIY section on this forum, it would really help out alot.

If I push harder it feels like it will break and don't want to end up buying a new grill

The bottom is all held in by little push tabs. I kinda give it a nice hit open Palm'd at the bottom on the point

Ive installed my grill but im having trouble with the tabs at the bottom which are supposed to lock into place. The grill is sitting perfect but I feel that its not fully secure- I just give it a little nudge and it pops out revealing the plastic brackets. Is this normal?

You need to line up the tabs at the bottom and pull the grill towards you at the bottom --pull hard and it will lock back into place.

Ok I will try to pull it a bit harder... thanks a lot dude

The only reason why I didnt pull hard is because i was worried about breaking something or snapping something + because of the honeycomb mesh which is there in between its hard to get a good grip on the grill to give it a good tug

I reach down behind the grill and give it a push along the bottom edge to set the tabs back in. You have to take the air intake scoop off to do it but it is not too hard to do.
