How do I remove my grill and headlight bezels. I looked at it and seems pretty easy, but I just woudl like to know of any hidden bolts or any tips to make it simpler. Thanks

Just several philips screws. The grill has one in each corner & two in the middle. One in each corner for the bezels.

It looks like you have a 82 and up grill. There are four screws in each headlight bezel (T15 torx). Remove both headlight bezels before you try to take out the grill. The grill has a bunch of reusable plastic connectors, kinda like rivets. Pull the center of the connector out about 1/4" with a pair of needle-nose pliers and it'll release it's grip on the header panel.
