How to Remove the Front Grille of a Volkswagen Golf

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 6, Golf VI, Golf 6, 5K1 - Years 2008-2012
Part: Grille

Before you start, open the front bonnet of your Volkswagen Golf. Begin by unscrewing and removing the four upper screws revealed when you opened the bonnet. Once all screws are removed, you will have freed the grille. Proceed to unclip it from its housing. After completing this step, you can fully remove the grille, finishing the disassembly. At this point, you are free to fit the new grille or repaint and refit the one you just removed.
