[Method]

Hey,
I tried removing my grille today and the darn thing is difficult to remove. There are so many tabs and pieces I have no clue which ones to pull/press. Usually I just go with the flo, but I've already snapped a few tabs already, and I want to remove the "VW" so I can paint it coz the silver is peeling.
Anyone know how to remove the grille/emblem (ie. step by step)
P.S. I tried a search already
P.S.S. I know I am an idiot.

Re: Stupid Q: Grille/VW removal (Method)

there are all the ones on top( i forgot how many all together) .. just push down on the top ones with a flat head screw driver and pull towards you ...then there are two tabs... one on each side of the bottom part... there will be a space ..the slot of a big flat head ... just stick the flat head screw driver and push in and up ... and you grille should be loose as it can get

^^^That is the best way, and everyone breaks some clips when they take it off....not a great mounting set up, but it will stay on fine even with very few clips left....
