Default grill

so im getting to repaint my grill becuase i was looking at it today and its got a pretty nice size chip in it since the last time i painted it, more than likely from a rock, and i got the bottom screws out but im turning the top bolts over and over and they just keep spinning like there spinning in place and not pushing the grill off, any ideas would be great

If you stripped them when you put them on from the first painting there not going to come back out! Because they should I took mine off last week with no problems.

i dont think they stripped, when i put them on they went on easily and fine and i know the first time i took it off i had to kinda put some pressure on the top of the grill to help it work its way out but now it doesnt want to even do that

if you cant get it off you could always just mask around it thats what i did worked fine and its alot less work then taking it on and off. Deffinitely sounds like stripped screws or possibly screwed in to far so now the threads arent catching anything to help spin themselfs out.
