Having troubles removing the bottom middle grille on the front bumper. Any ideas how to do it?

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

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.

i had to take my bumper off for the middle grille...you might aswell take bumper off same time as when u change the leds on the angel eyes

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?

I ended up braking my middle grill removing it but that didn't damage the bumper so i didn't care.

Just had to give it a good pull

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

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!

YANK IT !

Lol looks like the majority votes for YANKING! Right I will be sure to give this a try ASAP.

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

Well?

Got the lower grill on and got pictures for us yet ?

Haha not yet guy's, not yet Will give it a try ASAP when I can do it with some light.
