How do you remove the front radiator grille and replace it with a new one on a Ford Transit Custom Raptor?

Model: Ford Transit Custom - Years 2012-2024
Part: Grille

So if you want to change the front grille of the radiator to give your car a new look, here's how to do it without going crazy. Open the hood and unscrew the top screws of the grille. Then, carefully, unclip the plastic clips, do not break them, they are delicate. If the grille is still a bit stuck, use a plastic lever to help you and pull it off decisively. Now take the new grille, align it well and push it until you hear the "click" of the clips locking. Screw everything back in, close the hood and enjoy the new look of your van. It seems like a very easy operation and the effect is definitely very nice, but if you don't feel confident in doing it yourself, contact a specialized workshop.
