Default Grill Removal

How hard is it to get to and remove the 2 lower grills? I know the top one is simple to unscrew but do i have to remove the bumper to reach the 2 lower ones?

there should be little tabs where the plastic grill meets the bumper, you should just push in on the grill where the tabs are and it should just pop out.

Thanks but do i have to remove the bumper to reach these tabs though or can I reach far enough down to get them? Or crawl on my back and reach up for the low one?

for the lower grill you can just crawl underneath, but for the center one, you will have to remove the bumper, or damage the grill. you can get it out w/o taking off the bumper, but you will undoubtedly damage the clips in the process

ahh.. forgot, you got an xb... i only got one lower grill. :D easier to take out... a rock hit that lower grill and smashed my radiator all up, weird how it happened. at least it missed the paint, lol. my lower grill comes out pretty easy now that it has a crack in about 3 or 4 of the honeycombs. think it's time for mesh insert.
