Boxster front grilles

[Boxstered]

Is there someone here who can tell me how easy it is to take off the 2 front grilles on my Boxster 2001.

Thanks.

P.D. :)

You have to remove the bumper cover to get the grills out.

You mean that I have to remove the complete front bumper, there is no access to those grille elsewhere ? :angry:

P.D.

Nope. You need to release the clips from the inside of the cover. You cannot see let alone release these clips from outside the cover. Once the cover is off it takes seconds to release the clips from inside the cover and remove the grills.

I put a yellow line to the clips. The base Boxster is the same. Have not tried yet to get the grills out of a 2003/4.

Many thanks for your complete answer and the picture. This way, it shows me that it's not a job that I can do in my drive way...I'll have to go to a garage to have the whole front bumper remove.

Again, many thanks.

P.D. :clapping:
