Removing front grille

uluwatu06 · 07-24-2017, 04:08 PM

Dear friends,

Can someone please guide me on how to remove the front grille? I have already googled and looked at videos in youtube... but alot of those were on the E85 or E86. From what i gathered... E89 is slightly different but there isnt really any tutorial.

Please advise, TIA!

Basically the same - plastic tabs on grill held into "loops" on front fascia. Get a few plastic pry tools and know that you are both likely to break a few on the old grill AND have to use some force to get it out. A few good bangs from the rear were needed for mine
