i spoke to a friend of mine who owns a body shop he said its a real PITA. its a few hours worth of work. the mesh grill on the drivers side is a little crack in the coner on my X, but you cant tell so its not worth fixing. good luck with the repair guys let us know how it went.

Worst part of the mesh grill is that after just a few years it becomes quite brittle and gets damaged easier. It should have been better designed in numerous ways (stronger, easier removal, more segments, etc.)

i totally agree, come on you have to take off the whole bumper for something that breaks as soon as you get near it. they should have done a better job on this.
