Front grille removal

[doozer78]

Has anyone attempted to remove the front grille on the new 2020s yet? Specifically the lower piece that wraps up along both sides of the grille? If so any tips or videos out there. Cant seem to find much about this. Thanks

Just pull and pray

 

I believe the guy that wrapped mine said it was just clipped in when he removed it.

You have to remove:

 

- The hood latch handle which will then let you remove the intake baffle at the top of the grille.

- Remove the fender flares partially.  Just from the fascia trims under the headlights.  Flares use retainers, no screws in that area.

- Remove the fascia trims under the headlights.  One screw and 2 or three retainers hold those in.

- Then the grille.  4 screws at the top, the rest is retainers.  Remove the screws, pop the retainers.

This guy goes through doing a bumper spacer kit. Gets fairly detailed on the grille

I'm getting some pieces wrapped also which is why I need grille removed. Do you recall if the u shaped piece that goes around the bottom of grille comes off separate from the grill or is it a permanent part of the grille? Thanks

The surround is separate if that’s what you’re referring to.

Yes the lower surround. Thanks
