Default which guy on here fitted a silver prodrive mesh grille to his blue 06 hawkeye wrx?

because i have a matt black one for my 06 sti and need to know how to fit the top 3 pieces... its not easy thats for sure!! im getting the impression i need to remove the central grill section.. but this isnt easy.. the 2 plastic tabs at the top come out easily enough but the bottom ones are a nightmare! so if anyone could find me the post from the guy who fitted his grille that would be great, ur if he could reply to this post that would be even better! thanks!

It does some off you just need to be brave, take the sides off first and get one hand behind the central grill and help it along by pushing it our with one hand whilst pulling with the other.

ok, remove all the plastic clips from the top and gently pull, the top will come away relativly easily then with a bit more force the bottom should also, If the bottom does not come away wrap a flat screwdriver in a bit of material and slide it under the lower edge of the grill and use it to relese the clip, just be careful, I used an electrical driver that was preyy small.
