Default Swapping the GT grill for the Bullitt

I'm going to be doing the swap this evening when I get home from work. Any tips or warnings?

Also, what's the best way to remove the push-fasteners and clips without breaking them?

Thanks!

Just remember to wrap the spot light plugs in tape to protect them from the elements and tie them back out the way.
the Bullitt grill is IMHO waaaaaaay more attractive than the GT, you'll love it Dude !!

I had one on my ride for a bit before jumping ship to the 3D Carbon jobber. In many ways i regret the swap but sold the Bullit soooooo.....

I want the bullit aswell, that is why my fogs and pony are tinted out dark you can't see them from a distance unless you're right up on it as you can see a little in my sig. I can only find them in one place though and its pretty expensive. Where did you guys get yours?

Marcus, we have the same chin spoiler too .

I got mine over the parts counter at my local stealership... I guess some of the third party outlets have them, probably cheaper too, but it just seemed easier at the time

This is the only one I could find without going to the dealership.
