Is the Front Grill of the FR-S easily removable?

Basically, I just want to clean the inside of my fr-s grill. but do I need to take off the whole front bumper just to take it out, or is there a faster/easier way to take it off? Thanks!!!

The front grill is just clip ons, you can try just pushing it in and see if it'll snap out but it will be easier to take the bumper off to get better access and avoid breaking the clips. Once you take the bumper off there's no need to remove the grill, you can just wipe

You can take the bottom cover off and get it off from underneath without removing the bumper.

There's one really weirdly hard part to get off and it's the sidemarker clips. It's in a very awkward position and they're plastic which can break if you force them hard enough.
