Hi Terry,

I had my grill and surround out last year, so it's been a while.  My car is
missing the splash panels between the wheel and the grill, so I was able to
get to the grill from the wheel wells.  I turned the wheels hard in one
direction, and that gave me the access I needed.  I was able to drop the
grill and surround down, and then back thru the front to get it out.

I did it myself, but a helper would be a good idea.   It's a bit tight, and
you don't want to nick the paint.
