Video tutorial

In this video, see how to remove the front grille and badge from a Volvo V50 to replace it: use a plastic spatula to remove the grille without damaging the bodywork. This operation is quite simple, as shown in the video.

Removing the badge from the grille is a bit more laborious (the YouTuber wants to paint the front grille black, while the badge should remain silver). However, it's nothing impossible: just flip the grille over and with a bit of care and patience, using pliers, you can remove the clip to free the badge from the top side, then clean and paint the grille comfortably.
