Default Camaro grille

Ok, so I know I'm a complete newb for asking this, but seeing as how I've had my SS for...3 days now, I still don't know everything about it. Anyway, my question is how do I get my grille off? I'm going to replace it soon but realised that I have no clue how it's held in. I know the sides I can just pop out, but it's in the middle section I'm having troubles with. Is there bolts somewhere that I just can't see? Thanks in advance!

Yes, behind the licence plate frame, there is little plastic tabs that cover the bolts. Simple as that.

It looks even better when there is an intercooler in it's place.

Hey look, its NYIRP

Yeah, I'd go with either a flat black grill, or no grill at all.

Oh, scary guy:
Do the cops harass you about the front plate or no? Do you keep it in the window or what?

I have a bracket that i put on if i'm just cruising around.The only ticket i have gotten for that was when i first bought the car there was no front plate on it(florida car,no bracket came with it)and i got a ticket for $60.Then i got a letter a few weeks later saying they raised the fine by another $30.City of Rochester,go figure.

I hope you took that to court. That's after they wrote you the ticket. It's like filling up for gas right before they raise the price at the station.

Nope.
Between missing work,paying for parking,etc...It was just cheaper to pay it.
