agron80,
just bought a can of high temp engine paint myself today for my 89 300e...attempted to paint the grill, but was not able to remove the plastic grill from the assembly. i did take off the two screws from the top of the chrome grill in the back, and the screwat the bottom of the grill. my question is: how do i remove the plastic insert from the assembly. the clips look menacing and i dont want to snap them. can you please tell me how to remove the plastic insert. thanks.
