Anybody ever changed their rings on the front grill?...

I just got my black rings in for the front grill of my TT. Please tell me there is some simpler way to install it than taking off the front bumper and removing the grill. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Use a putty knife, or a very thin screwdriver to.....

stick under the rings, and gently pry them off. There are around 8 clips that hold it on and they pry out fairly easily

A belt sander will also work quite nicely.

I really prefer the belt sander, but I can see your point. A jig-saw will work in a pinch too...

...and let's not forget that MacGyver could probably do it with a power nose hair trimmer.
