Default stock grille: how do I get license plate plastic off???

on the stock grille that came with my black 00 SS...the one with CAMARO lettering...I took my front plate off but now I need to get the actual license plate holder off...I heard it is really hard to get off, and I think I stripped the screw inserts...but I do have a stull billet grille, in the mean time, how do I get the license plate plastic holder off so I can see the CAMARO lettering behind it???

I believe the license plate bracket is riveted to the stock grille piece. Probably need to drill the rivets out.

Mine was just screwed into the black plastic grille. Pretty simple to remove. Then I just carefully yanked that black plastic grille out.

Mine was riveted in. You have to drill out the rivets, just take your time, its not too difficult.

The kit, from the factory, comes with screws, although the dealer that took delivery of the car may have rivited it on.

If you take the tag out, you should be able to see if it is rivited or if it's screwed on.
