i have done it before... you have to pry the top grill off the car, be careful, don't do it hard, but take your time... and if you're wondering about the bottom grill, you gotta go under the car and unscrew the board thing off to get into the bottom grill, and go from there... i hope i may help a little... no link that i known of, i did this all myself. really easy, but the hardest part is to cut the mesh grille into a perfect shape to fit there.... took me two weeks to do both...

That's what I used, painted white to match the rims...

Also, I just removed the grills to do it, not the bumper.
