W164 Grill Removal?

Just curious if anyone has any visual assistance or actual instructions as to how to take it it off.

Aside from the 2 rivets and 2 bolts holding the top of it down... how do we go about removing the 3 clips at the bottom of grill attached to the bumper?

And if it makes a difference based on MY, it's for a 2007 ML350 4Matic.

It takes patience. They are the hardest to.
You need someone with long and skinny arms to get in there to un-clip them. I think it took me about 20 minutes or so with help from a cousin.

I noticed it was a clip sort of shaped in the letter ' U ".. for lack of a better description.

Do I pull on the clip entirely? Do I pull the bottom of it away from the front bumper? How exactly do I go about doing so?
