remove the plastic cover....pull up on it from the edge it will come up fairly easily!
these are the tab locations
push down using a screw driver or even your keys ...push forward at the same time to push out the grill
pull out the top slowly and lift at the same time to release the bottom tabs if this is to difficult put your finger though to pull up on the lower tabs....move it around a bit it will come loose.......use 2 hands I only did this for the pic!

like the idea! do you think it would make a difference if you made a piece to cover up the whole right side of the grill to ram more air in instead of an open pipe? like a custom fit funnel around the back side of the grill connecting to the pipe? just an idea........

Definitely! I would think using similar used methods of ram air as a template can give decent results without effecting other systems performance such as cooling system.
