just on the side gills. I didn't remove the bottom part I just clipped in the new black gloss part, makes it a lot less dangerous given the wing is plastic.

Played around with the front grills but thought i was gonna break either the bumper or the grills so gave up. Are the clips for the grill on the sides? Anyway to get a close up pic of the brackets so I know what to look/feel for?

Also my car has two different Torx screws and 8 total. The two on the sides are smaller than the six in the middle.

thanks.

Correct there are clips on the inside of the bumper cover that you need to release so you can release the front grilles. You can see the black tab in this photo that clicks into the bumper cover.

Thanks nate, so the tabs are at the top and bottom of the grill? I just ordered the parts this evening from u guys so hopefully will do it next week.

Do you guys have or plan to make a DIY to remove the rear diffuser (around the exhaust)?

Anyone have any tips on actually removing the front reflectors? I could not get them to budge at all. nylon prybar was no help, and it bent out of shape.
