Pull the clips out of the top. Smash it really hard with the palm of your hand and the lower clips should come out of the bumper.

Ok mate
So remove those 2 tops plastic screws then hit the bottom of the grill in towards the engine
Are they easy enough to put back together
Cheers

Yeah just a reverse of fitting. They do require some force to get out of the bumper but never break.
