My Galant came in from Japan with the front VR-4 badge detatched, I went to remove the front grill yesterday to refit but it wouldn't budge. Its held in place with 5 or 6 clips, I didn't want to force it off for fear of snapping the clips. Am I missing something?

The little grey clips have small square tabs on them facing the front of the car, you can get it off by sticking a screwdriver down the back of the grille and pushing the tabs, definately dont force them.. then the whole lot should slide out forwards.

To re-attach the grill, take out the gray plastic bits left on the car and insert them back into the grill.

Push the grill back onto the car
