pop the plastic rivits on top of the fascia and you can do it all by reaching in. You don't have to remove the fascia to do it. I even did the lower grille without taking it off.

It probably depends on which grill you have and how it is attached. I have the Carriage works billet grille and didn't have to remove the bumper. Although it would have been a lot easier. I took out a couple of bolts underneath so I could get one hand in there and somehow manage to get the thing attached. It would also have been easier with another person around.

I used a pencil to line up the bracket and hold it in place frmo the front of the car (with the fascia on) then tightened da screws. Much quicker than removing the front fascia.

It's a pretty easy install. Save the $100 on an installer. Just take your time and you will be fine...

How did you manage to get that grille in place? I purchased black powdercoated billet grille and for the life of cannot get them installed. like you i would prefer to do it myself and the install fee. Did you do any drilling? Any advice will help. Oh yeah your car looks sweet!!!!
