Removing rear grill?

Hey everyone. I wanted to replace my rear grill with the grill from the chrome line exterior option. I have the parts for the job already. (I want to do the front lower grill as well.) I just can't seem to figure out how to get the rear grill off. I know it is held on with just tabs, but it looks like I'll have to remove the entire bumper to do this job. I wasn't expecting that, my own fault for not checking first. Anyone have any experience with this? I have instructions for removing the front grill, but I can't find any for the rear. Anyone have any info on this? Thanks.

It times like this that I wished I had ordered the chrome line exterior. It would have been much easier removing the mirror caps and boot handle, than adding these grills.
