you can take the bumper off or the lower shield and pop the clips from the back side or just grab and pull like most people do

Is there a possibility I could brake something if I did the “grab and pull” technique?

One of my 4 pop-in things had a nut on the back, i pulled the plastic grille back and cut the screw, then the nut fell down behind.

Pull very hard and it will come out, or if you are paranoid then you have to remove the entire front bumper, but that is a waste of time IMO, be a man and use your hands! lol

Not hard to swap out the stock grille for the SS grille. You can either yank off the stock piece, or remove the front clip to get it off. I've done both, and I recommend just yanking the stocker off. A whole lot easier and less time consuming.

Thanks guys for the help so far.
Do I have to drill any holes, or do any modifications to make it fit?

No mods to make it fit. You could use 3M double sided tape or use the mounting hardware that comes with the grille & drill the holes. It is up to you.
