do u mean upper or lower grills , cupra doesnt have upper honeycomb grills , it has slotted ones in a different colour , as for lower honeycomb grill , surely u mean FR grills as the cupra one wont fit without the bumper , FR has honeycomb upper grills too

There farley easy to do, the lower ones are easy, pull the two fog lamp covers off and then you'll need a flat head screwdriver to just prise the clips out. The top ones are a bit more fiddley, same as the middle one on the lower grills, screwdriver ad just prise the two side ones out and then i think the middle one with the seat badge in should just pop out the i thik.

Yeh sorry ment the Fr grilles. Just for the side of the S and the lower ones. I dont have the fog lights in at the mo so how would i reach the clips that u sed would be behind them?

Yeah, just thought, on the Fr ones you have slats at the side of the fog lights so you just pull at them and out they come. When i took my old ones off the sx i had i just ripped them out quite agressively and wrecked them. You slide the screwdriver underneith the grill and just lift it slightly and pull at the same time, or you can do what Ant said and take the bumper off. When people said that to me i was a bit confused and didnt know how to do it, but when i fitted my FMIC i had to take it off and was surprised how easy it was, about 20 small hex bolts(5 or 6 in each wheel arch, 6 under the bumper at the front, 4 on top as you open the bonnet) and off they come.chazly123 said:
