Default how to remove front grille

Hi, i need to paint the front grille, their are too many chips in it...after removing the top bolt and plastic connectors i can't seem to get the grille off...top part is loose but their appear to be hidden connectors on the bottom....anyone have instruction on how to remove the front grille? (grey grille...not the chrome part)...though i'd be happy to get it all off. Thanks in advance

Here's a PDF showing the instructions for disassembling the entire front end of a 2008. Hope this helps.
