Removing Side grills

[mattywatsit]

Hi Everyone,

The side grills on my 360,located justbehind the rearmost windows on the side are worn and need repainting. I am wanting to take one of them off to start with to take to help get some paint matched.

Does anyone know how they detach from the car? One of mine is loose but i don't want to pull at it too hard incase it breaks.

Thanks again

Matthew.

The grille surround has pegs at the back which wedge into some rubbery 'socks' which wedge into the bodywork. Sort of wiggle it out holding onto top and bottom of the surround. The black grille is held in by surround and will fall out once you remove the surround.

Mine need a respray. First thing I did to the car was spray the grille bit black as mine were looking a bit grey

Cheers Matt, I will give that a go after work and hopefully go to get the paint matched sometime this week.

12 door? If it's a 343 3dr they're held on with two philips screws, but I'm guessing it's a 340/360 because you would have noticed if there were screws lol

Yeah it's a 360 No screws, but one of my side grills is very loose, so i will have to have a go at removing them sooner rather than later.... especially with wind like todays!
