Front mesh/plastic grill removable?

Hey everyone,

I just installed the Perrin Oil Cooler yesterday and became very proficient at removing the front bumper. It's really easy and takes maybe ten minutes, but if I'm at a track, I don't really want to spend that time with the little stupid plastic clips and was thinking if I could just remove the front plastic piece covering it up, it would be easy!

Does anyone know or can point me in the direction of a manual or DIY that shows if that plastic for the front grill is removable? There appear to be some tabs or something on it that shows it connecting, but it could also just be bent plastic that is then somehow held on with more clips....?

Thanks for the help.

I believe it is just held in by clips, as when the front of my car was ran over the grille popped out.
