    Default MPS 6 Front Grill

    Just wondering if theres an easy way to take of the front grill or do I have to take the whole bumper off?

    Ive removed the two screws that hold it in on each side but still seems stuck in..

    dont wanna break anythin :P

    Pull...

    Break...then it comes off, that's how I did mine. Not sure how to take it out with limited access WITHOUT breaking it. Here's some pics that might help understand how it fixes in place.

    As you can see, I siliconed and superglued the bits I broke. Might be good to put back but not to take off again

    Good luck!

    Geez, Rog, you're an absolute craftsman with the glue and silicone.
    A roll of gaffa tape and there'd be nothing you couldn't fix ;-)

    Thanks Pete, I reckon the silcone job was pretty good. Should hold ok. I beaded silcone under the 1mm gap of plastic too so there's no reason why it should break there again. The two middle clips I expect will break again though...I have no intention of putting the stock grille back any time soon though. What can I say...I spend a lot of time on my car!

    I also broke my one when removing, very tight around the emblem area... It is do-able without breaking though
