Is it possibly to pull off the front grill

Without having to remove the entire bumper? Searched around, didn't see anything on that.

It could be possible...but those screws are really difficult to get at. It's a 10 min job to remove the bumper...and a lot easier to get at the grill that way.....

You really need to pull the bumper. It's a 10 minute job .... the second and subsequent times you do it that is.
