Re: Black Top Grille

Yup, just pull it from one side and then the rest will come with it if you gently pry it.

Re: Black Top Grille

I tried to get my top grill out, but couldnt. Is there any suggestion or do I have to remove the whole front bumper?

Thanks
Peter

it seems really hard mate but you simply grab either side of the top grille and just pull really hard. It feels like it's going to break but honestly it won't, trust me!

It also comes out alot easier after the first time lol

Re: Black Top Grille

Just pull it.

Bottom grill is a f*cker to get back in aswell Might just leave it out as it looks mean as it is:

Re: Black Top Grille

Probably is a slight risk but i cant see the standard grills offering too much protection anyway

Re: Black Top Grille

Cheers mate.

No 2litre will get released in it. Pointless with new emissions and tax laws.
