How to remove GT lower black grille insert?

[krang00]

Anyone know how to remove the stock black grill insert on the GT front bumper? Anyone do this or have a picture of what it looks like?

I'm thinking of trying it to see if it looks better with my new Cervinis front billet grille.

Thanks!

i am pretty sure it is held in with tabs similar to the tabs that hold in the grille. the PITA tabs

That's what I was afraid of I tried to get it off tonight but it looks like I'm going to have to take off another cover to get a better angle.

I think it just pops out. Shouldn't have to take anything else off.

Yes, it just pops out. It's held on with tabs.

I don't want to break the tabs in case I need to put it back in, don't I need to push down on the tabs or something? Sorry for being anal

I remember taking off the skid plate underneath when I did mine.

But ya, It should just be slot A and tab B type stuff. Pull the tab back and it should pop right out of the slot.

I'm sure you'll figure out how to get the lower grill off
better than the way mine came off. Mine was shattered
by a flying hubcap (of all things!) Still need to talk to
my insurance about that. Might be a good time to upgrade the grill and front facia.

Ok, it came off much easier once I took the skid plate out. I was able to see underneath and pop the tabs out with a flat head screw driver. Once I had that out I took a utility knife and cut out the "tabs" they connect to, really opens up the front end... I'll post some pics when I get back from Indiana next week. Thanks all!
