I have searched for this but cant find anything.
I want to fit my new lower grill (non sport bumper) but the only instructions i can find is by removing the whole bumper. Is there any way to do it without taking it all off... i think i remember somebody mentioning it.
Thanks

Your really ment to take the bumper off to fit it proply but i fancy you could put it over the top of the existing grille but it wouldnt be very safe or secure and i probably wouldnt advise it.
