Grab the top of the grille and give it a hard yank towards yourself and it will pop right out. You may want to put something between the bottom of the grille and the bumper so it won't scratch it.

The clips on the bottom may need to be pushed up to release the bottom, then you can pull it out. That's what I had to do. If I just yanked it out, it would have snapped the bottom clip on each side.

Yeah I don't even use the bottom clips, I take the grille off all the time and they're just a pain.
