oh the toyota grill duh!!! remove your engine plastics and look behind the emblem you will see a philips head screw... just screw it off and you are done... oh yeah there are 2 plastic tab locks on each side of the emblem just push them towards the center of the car and thats it youre done...

it is a bitch though.... i might even says it would be easyer to take off the front bumper then remove it..... taking off the front bumper is a breeze.

Yes it is... You would need a very small rachet type philips head screw driver and small hands to fit in that small opening... I had my younger sister do it so it worked out just fine...

wtf... i had such a hard time removing that when i installed my CAI. i found all the bolts, but it was the sides that was so hard. you know those white clips? they just didnt budge and it was freakin hard to move them. what should i do to remove the bumper from those clips?

The white clips that bite your bumper? Just pull the bumper up and away thats should do it...
