I want to rebuilt my front grill mess, but it's extremly hard to put in a new grill mess w/o taking the bumper off.

thank you in advance.

Question

If you are talking about the mesh, you only need to remove the grill (couple of screws I think) to replace the mesh. You should not need to remove the bumper.

My RMM bumper has a large grill mess on the opening.
I tried to take this grill mess out and put it back last time, it's extremly hard to put it back. now the grill is rusted, i want to replace with some thing new, more shiny...that is why I need to remove the bumper, to cut the grill (make things alot easier)

Honestly, I think it would be easier to drive the front up on some ramps. That will at least give you some more working room without you having to tear the front of the car off.
