How do you remove the front factory plastic black grill on a 2003 bumper? is there a way of just removing it or does it have to be cut out and then finished? reason being is just installed a turbo and cant see the intercooler.

 

I know the 3 strips running horizontally can be snapped out, there clipped on from the back. The rest might have to be cut...

 

you have to cut it

 

thanks, i will see and try it

 

Ummm... No.

 

This should do the trick.

 

*****... LOL

 

 

i used a dremel to cut mine. just take your time, and use eye protection... i almost had something hit me in the eye

 

it has to be cut

 

Utility knife with a sharp blade and you can cut it out in about 2 minutes. That's how I removed mine...

 

Chainsaw looks good to me

 

You're way is definately going to be easier/faster.

 

OP what color is your bumper? Mine is cut out already and I would like to get a stock one. Mine is an 06 bumper painted CS. I got it from a friend of mine who was boosted but he wrecked his car. I'd pay shipping both ways if you wanted to swap

 

You should see what I use to roll fenders LOL

 

^??

 

my bumper is an 03 db and it already has the 3m film all over the front including the greddy front lip...so swapping is out of the question...but i will cut it probably with a dremmel...thanks for the replies...
