I have no idea how to get it out....but...
Where did you get them from and how long was delivery? (If you used Vag Team or whatever they're called!)

I bought them from Vaglink.com and they were shipped in a matter of days! Very quick service 
Re: Removing 9N3 Bottom Grille?
Yeah that's the one i meant, Vaglink!
Were they with you within a week of ordering?
From what i can see in your picture, the grilles you've fitted so far look quality!

Yeah they are really nice I love them. The thing is I can't even get the final piece to fit! 
And I placed my order last Friday, was here this morning.

Re: Removing 9N3 Bottom Grille?
Yeah I took it off in the process. But there are lots of little clips that need to be undone at once :S Can you suggest a good way to do this?
Re: Removing 9N3 Bottom Grille?
I ended up braking my middle grill removing it but that didn't damage the bumper so i didn't care.Karson3270 wrote:Yeah I took it off in the process. But there are lots of little clips that need to be undone at once :S Can you suggest a good way to do this?

Re: Removing 9N3 Bottom Grille?
Yeah i have heard many stories of people actually forcefully yanking them out. But I just wanted to make sure if there was no easier way 
Re: Removing 9N3 Bottom Grille?
I also done this! just snapped the middle slatts on the grille so you can get a hand in behind to help it out lol and gave it a good yank and it just poped out!9N3 Turbo wrote:I ended up braking my middle grill removing it but that didn't damage the bumper so i didn't care.Karson3270 wrote:Yeah I took it off in the process.

Thanks guys.

I also cut mine off, was the easiest way of doing it, i actually used a plaster board saw for doing it and it was the perfect tool for the job! haha
