How do you remove a v6 grill?
theres like 2 screws or so on the top of the gril lfrom where the latch of the hood is, and then right above the bumper it self right under the grill it self there should be like 2 more screws, and then your out.
I looked at my grill and there are 4 screws on the top that are easy to take out but the 4 screws on the bottom of the grill are installed upside-down, I guess. They go from under the bumper, up towards the sky. Do you think it would be bad for me to just take some pliers to grab the end of the screw and try to push it out backwards so I dont have to take the bumper off?

You don't need to take the bumper off. Take the pushpins off the top of the grille and bend the grille back, then you reach your hand down and unscrew the screws underneath. I'm forewarning you, its difficult, and since your car is now like 7 years old, its gonna be a bit tougher since there may be some rust on them. I took mine off last year and it was kinda tough, one of them especially gave me a hard time and I have a 2000 coupe. But, once you get those off, the whole honeycomb and horse comes off.
I got the the 3 piece grille delete and I am VERY VERY happy with it.
Thanks guys, and girls, I ended up just bending back the bumper and sliding my wrench underneath to get it taken off. It took about an hour and some dirty, cut up hands, but I got it taken off. I'll send some pics in of what I did with it.
Awesome-- glad to hear you got it taken care of. Those screws really can kill your hands, I really cut myself up getting mine off, people probably thought I was crazy.
