the grill has two bolts on the front under the bonnet slightly, ull see them, undo those and give it a wiggle and itll come off, no need to remove the bumper!

Nah i gave up cos I didnt have a new grill to go in. Was just seeing how easy it came out! When I change the grill I'll get my Uncle to do it for me cos he works at Vaux in the bodyshop so I would reckon he has taken a few out in his time

Not sure what its called though .
Had to remove bumper and cut out existing grille .
Hardest part was getting the bumper to sit straight

It was only about £40 quid from PVD but they've gone bust now mate. I like that grill cos it looks dead smooth and subtle.
