Curt, this is a 124 car, that won't work. Grill is bolted to the front facing
part of the hood, not the top surface. No way to remove the grill without

I would grab the plastic with a pliers and twist and lever to break of small

I would suggest the use of a pair of dyke cutters to clip the edges of the
grill, rather than pliers.
If you have some with long handles so you have better leverage, even
better. You should be able to go around the entire grill edge rather
quickly and remove it cleanly.
Just a thought.. hope it

I need to correct that. On the later 124 cars, what I said is correct, but
on the 1st generation, it _just_ may be possible to remove the chrome
