What did you do for your ZHP/BMW today?

Let us know of the install from the front....But it is nice to know that the grill can be pushed inward and removed through the intake mouth. Were there any broken clips when pushing in?

nope the clips are pretty solid and it came off really easily... the reinstall is gonna be the test though

There was a DIY here on this site with a youtube clip from BAVAUTO, I used a micarta scraper and went outward with both grilles. I did not have to split this grilles and the new ones went in in reverse fashion from outside in starting at top and it snapped right in. Removing the right grille facing the trunk I cracked lower left tab but none broke off.

We are still talking about the bottom bee hive grill, right? Not the hood kidney grills as imola red zhp was referring to.....

Thanks. That is what I thought we are talking about....I just want to make sure of amount of force and where exactly on the grill to push in without destroying any clips.....if you remember the sequence.

if ya look at the picture I posted you can see where the clips attach to the bumper I started in the middle and worked my way out applying pressure and slowly increasing it until the clip let go I did the top in the same fashion

Lawrence, I'm probably gonna take my bumper off on Sunday. I can come over and we just do both our cars if you want. Let me know
