how to remove lower grill on LCI?...blacking out front end
How do you remove the lower grill on an LCI car? the upper one under the kidneys was easy, but i couldn't figure out the lower one without applying too much force?

I'm painting all the grills and trim flat black to match my new flat black kidney grills

Also, any place to order flat black badges? or just paint my current ones?

blue dragon will become famous soon enough
You need to remove the front bumper cover to remove the lower grill. There are a couple of screws in the wheel well, some at the top of the bumper and some below the bumper.

Once you have it off you will see how to remove the lower grill
