Default Removing front grille

What is the easiest way to remove the front grille? I am in the process of doing the DIY chrome grill tip. And i would like to take it off for ease of use to remove the paint.

Thanks

If anyone has pics too that would be great

there are 5 hex screws/nuts on the inside of the hood, can't miss them. the easiest and fastest way is to use a ratchet, then you can get all 5 off in about 2 minutes. there is one other plastic clip which holds it in place, but that's a tension clip, so just pop the thing off and you are ready to go.
