Clio 182 front grill removal??

[RSLDH]

Sorry for being such an idiot, trying to remove the front grill so it can be taken away for respraying. Undone the first two clips under the bonnet but what else is holding it on?

A friend of mine says it clips in at the bottom and if I pull the grill gently it will come off. And the grill is being stubborn and not moving, surely I've missed something?

Cheers for any help given

It clips in at the bottom. If you don't value the skin on your hands you can get in and undo them with a screwdriver

Some people give them a sharp blow at the bottom to unclip them but this can damage it.

If you have the time and space, whip the bumper off. It makes it so much easier

Hit it with the palm of your hand with force job done

Start at the middle and work your way outwards, you might snap it if you start at the end. It needs a pretty decent whack, like prince naseem not AJ.

100% do not let AJ over to help whack the front grill out.
