The center grill bit just pulls out, lift from bottom and pull towards you but getting the S badge out is a lot harder, you will have to cut the 2 bits of plastic off the back where it holds the badge in place, it doesn't need gluing afterwards, it a tight enough fit for it to hold and after a while you will need to repaint due to stone chips.
its a mk1 tdi cupra face lift if that makes a difference

pics are here
the green lines show what I had to glue to repair the grille even though it is missing the top curve on one side
scotch padded to a dull finnish
Primmed
Drying the S
hand painted the red
left over night to dry / harden
built up this morning ready to put on before driving to work - fitted it when car was defrosting - not going in now
will get a pic on the car when the light comes

not 100% convinced if I will keep this look when i get my new grille but it was worth a go
next one will be masked and painted - not hand painted like this one (Brush marks and highs and lows)
