Umm, i did take those apart to remove them, and ended up breaking some tabs. BUT DO NOT TAKE THE KHOALTY ONES APART!!! i did that, and had to buy a second set. They just push in from the front, assembled.

Thanks I just installed it.. but the left one is a little loose because I broke a piece off. I'm thinking about taking it out and crazy glueing it.

Black grilles look great on a ZHP. Debadge it (if you haven't already) and you will have remedied that pesky chrome problem your car came with :biggrin

Looks great. Sorry to hear you broke a tab. It takes a bit of finess. You'll be better on your next set.

Du-OH! I keep going back and forth on the black grilles vs. chrome big since my ride has (pesky) chrome wheels, it just fits for me. :-) PS love my chrome wheels... even though I know that almost ALWAYS gets dissed on e46f.c :-) John

Pic of the chromes? Not a big fan but not a hater here either.

every grille i've done i've separated and then reconnected, but you say it works pretty well to just push them in through the front, at least on facelift coupes, ay? :ninja

On my coupe, I pushed it through also. I did not separate.

From the factory they are pushed right in.

Looks as though we've got a consensus.

Hahaha...nice touch with the SnP track Marcus. Mine pushed in as well, but that is no surprise to anyone here, snapped off one corner tab on the way in though, but they are still nice and snug.

Sorry I'm in the pic but this is one I could get to the easiest that showed the chrome.

I saw them in person. I'm not a fan of chrome wheels. However, John can pull them off on the convertible. Plus, John is a pimp, so it just works.

Exactly. He's a pimp. That was the word I was looking for.
