How to remove front grille?

I'm looking at installing laser jammer transceivers in the front grill (top-side portions) but in order to do this, I'll need to cut a small area out of the top of the grille to make room for the transceivers. Do you guys know if there's any way to remove the grille to make this job a little easier??
Thanks

yes remove the front bumper...and the grille is a large piece that a lot of which u cannot see from the front

the service manual actually does a decent job of showing how to do it (which is a suprise since many of the Service Manual directions end of damaging some part of your car :p)
