    Well when I swapped my front grill that was one of the parts I had to remove in order to get the grill out. It was the whole front end that I removed.

    Agreed same as the lower valance,only concern is scratches upon installation.
    If concerned, use painters tape on the outside surrounding frame of existing bumper pieces.

    you can always ask the person you stole the picture from..

    To answer your question you do not need to remove the grill at all. The front bumper does need to come off but that’s it.

    That can be swapped in/out easily without taking off any other parts. I did it to install fog lights.

    its all good, just figured a quick PM I could have answered. As the other poster mentioned it can be swapped without the bumper being removed but just a little more tedious.
