Default Guide to removing Camaro front grille?

My buddy just bought a SLP front grille replacement and came up here to have me help him out to install it. He said he had found better instructions than SLP gave (thats pretty easy though ), that were online in color pictures and all. Does anybody have a guide for removing the camaro's front end? Not necessarily SLP specific, just the front end removal...

I got the bottom and sides out of the one on my V6. The tops just wouldn't come out so I cut the tabs off.

DO a search. This has been discussed length.

If you have the time, just take the bumper cover off. You'll be able to install it perfectly. If you're in a hurry, just pull on the stock one and it'll come off.

Grip and rip, worked for me. It's a little nerve racking when you see your bumper flexing but it will come out.

Yeah initially I didn't get any search hits but my search was a little too specific. To anybody wondering the same question, just pull it out...it's really not necessary to take off the whole front end like SLP "highly recommends"....
