How did you remove the trim without removing the bumper? Do you just pull/pry it off or do you have to push any clips from the back side of the grill?

Wow, that looks great. Exactly what I'm looking to do. What a pain that MINI made this part such a chore. You would think that since they sell black out options of most everything else on the exterior they would get that people don't want that huge gaping chrome lipstick on the car!

I just had mine wrapped in the carbon fiber look and my installer and I broke quite a few of the clips while removing it. So I ordered a replacement ring, will have it wrapped and then install the new one with all the clips. OCD!! The current one looks awesome put I know that all the clips are not engaged, so it will drive me nuts.

Did they not remove the bumper to get the grill off??

Seriously. C'mon ECSTuning! You offer 20+ variations of the Audi A3 8P grille but nothing for the F56??

Yea, lots of options for the audi side, nothing yet for the F56. Hopefully in the near future. Sign up on our site under the model and you will get an email when something comes out.
Most people are using the 3m and wrapping it.

I ordered mine here. Sounds like it may take month to arrive though.
