New grill
Can someone who has changed the grill in there car please give me info on how to do so. My grill is being painted as we speak and I want to know what to do to change out the old one from the new. Can some please be detailed and let me know.

Easy. 6 bolts. 4 on top/back portion of grille 2 on bottom/back portion of grille. Use a socket wrench (can't remember what size, but if you can't figure that out by trial and error, then you really shouldn't be doing DIY's). Take off all 6 bolts.
Once those are off, position the new grille in the same place. Make sure that the hood latch goes in the proper slat. Reverse the process with the screws (common knowledge when re-tightening is cross pattern).
That's it. That Simple.
