How do you take the grill off a lincoln ls?

I unscrewed the 4 bolts, now the front of the grill is loose, but how do you remove the clamps that are holding the bottom of the grill?

Use plyers and clamp down on the clips

no prob, you gonna plasti dip or change out the grille ?

Change it out. I have a 01 ls and gonna replace it with a chrome grill

A quick question. I've removed the grill from the chrome/plastic frame, but how do I go about making the frame black? So that when I get the chrome grill, the frame wont be chrome as well.

by painting it...


the grill surround only came in chrome (standard with black waterfall) and body matched painted (with chrome waterfall)

wait, you got just the chrome part of the grill coming, not the whole LSE/06 grill? or is this one of those stick on chrome kits?

Gotcha. So do I have to peel the chrome plastic off before painting it?

painting chrome sucks, it doesn't stick as well.

just make sure its prepped well and you should be good to go.

it probably would have just been better to just get an LSE/06 grill since the trim edge around the chrome inside is paintable
