you have to remove the two bolts located at the bottom of the image:

then from here, you have to start unclipping all of the clips from the right side, i believe, first then the left side of the grill. both are attached to each other.

lemme know if you have problems. I think someone made a how to but if not, I can try to strum one up for ya
