It looks like it may have to be cut out, what do i use? can it be ordered without the middle center piece, question 2, When thats all said and done whats the best way to fasten the new silver mesh grille ? question 3, I removed the lower grilles, on the front and rear of my car, whats the best way to fasten those in ? Thanks for all the help. Morgan 98.5 CSVT Black #5707 of 6535 Born On 4-16-98 Flowmaster Exhaust BAT MAF Adapter W/ 9in K & N Knauberized B & M Short Throw Focus SVT Rims (Hopefully Tom.)

Originally posted by BMorgn66: 3 questions, First, how do you remove the black grille: It's installed with heat stakes, so you can use an iron to undo the stakes or just cut it. Once I was sure of what I wanted to do, I would just cut it. If you think you would ever want to undo the mod, I would learn to use a heat iron to melt the joint without destroying the grille. This way you can use epoxy to reinstall the mesh if so desired. Originally posted by BMorgn66: Can it be ordered without the middle center piece: No Originally posted by BMorgn66: question 2, When that's all said and done whats the best way to fasten the new silver mesh grille: I would use epoxy in the same area where the heat stakes were. Originally posted by BMorgn66: question 3, whats the best way to fasten those in: I used a u-nut and bolt at each tap used by the factory grille. Anthony B.
