Removing front grill: Gonna paint it

Just seein how you guys took out your front grills. I tried in the dark the other day and must have missed a couple bolts cause it wouldnt come out. I'm assuming there are a couple bolts ya gotta take out, right? And snaps or clips I gotta worry bout? Today project is to paint the grill white.
Thanks

Piece of cake...should take less than 5 minutes if you have a small ratchet. Pop the hood and there are 3 nuts that need to be removed along the top of the grill. One near the hood latch in the middle, one on the left and one on the right. Once you get those 3 off it's just clips along the bottom, you start by pulling the top out and the whole thing pops right out.
