i dont think you have to take the bumper off :)

On mine, bro managed to get it the original one out, but broke some of the clips.

New one went in easy :)

Ohh fair enough, what did he do like bash it out with a tool? But if you were to break clips wouldnt that effect the new grill fitting on?

Urmm you'll have to ask him, i'll get him to speak to you on here mate :) i think he broke a couple of clips on the old grille, not the bumper itself

Just lever it out with a nice big screwdriver on one end, and pull :) worked last time i did it! Just mind the paintwork on the bumper
