I searched and could only find out how on other generation models. I looked at mine, and see a number of philips head fasteners on the top. Is that it? Seems like there would be clips too on the bottom and/or sides. If anyone has any tips on removal, I'd appreciate it. The chrome is peeling off with wear and age, and I'd like to get an oem replacement.

Thanks! Installed front tow hooks and a front license plate bracket today. :)

For the grill, just unscrew those plastic fasteners. Then pull strait up on the grill.
 






Thank you guys, that seemed too easy. Nice to see it is indeed that easy! Appreciate it.
