If you search grill up, in one of the threads there's a link called grille that show you how to change the grill you have remove the grill protector, a bunch of clips, and hooks. Might be better to just remove the whole bumper.

Nice Grill. I also have a 08 GS350 and wanted to know what parts are needed to make the conversion and how much did it cost you?

Did you reuse your original emblem or have to buy a new one?

Nice work Jodeci,

How long did the project take? Did you break any clips while removing the grille?
