Default Removing Lower Grill

How do I remove the lower plastic grill?
I want to stretch some bug screen over it and reinstall it.
Cleaning squashed grasshoppers out of the condenser through that plastic grill is a pain.

The foglight install instructions show everything about removing the bottom grill:

Thanks CIONIDE,
I didn't know it was so involved!
I might try developing a shape fitting frame capturing the bug screen and held to the lower grill with j-hooks. That way I can shake it out and remove it in winter.

It's really not that bad. It's all just screws and clips, but there are a bunch of them. I definitely recommend having another set of hands around when removing the bumper, it makes it a lot easier.
