How to remove oem grill

[LVMS]

Hey guys I just bought an LT3 Summit White Tahoe and my grill is the black one. Im going to get a chrome plastic oem grill from an LTZ. I need to know if any of you have removed the grill and how you did it. I took a quick look but i decided to come in here and ask. Please let me know what tools i need and what to do. Thanks in advance :clapping:

The thread that Lap Top gamer posted is a good resource for removing the bumper. You actually don't need to totally remove it to swap out the grille inserts. Just pull it forward enough so you can get your hands down to the bottom of the bottom insert. There are 4 or 5 BLACK (not chrome) plastic tabs on the top and bottom of each insert that hold the insert to the bumper fascia. You need to push down hard on each of these. I started from the right and worked to the left pulling the insert out a bit as I pushed each plastic tab. You also need to remove the two speed nuts that hold the bow tie to the fascia before you remove the upper insert. The new inserts just snap into place.
