changing side vents & removing front grill (added edit)

I'm looking at colour coordinating the TDV8 with a black/chrome supercharger grill set

How easy is it to remove the side vents?

Also,

Is the supercharger grill just a standard grill with silver and body colour surround? Or does it have polished chrome bits... I'm just getting conflicting descriptions that's all.

I currently have what I can only assume is a copy supercharged grill set on mine at the moment..with the surrounding plastic brunel silver rather than java. RRS gone

Supercharged grille is silver bars only, the surround is the same colour as the standard item (Brunel). Grilles you've seen with body coloured surrounds are aftermarket painted, not factory supplied like that.

So you have an correct supercharged grille (or a standard grille with painted bars)

Top man Martin Cheers

And thanks for the clarification regarding the grill colours Thumbs Up

Might as well get mine colour matched by my local bodyshop then. Whistle RRS gone

2007 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Java Black

I've just tried to replace the sidelights with my LED ones and the grill is not attached as i was expecting.

The D3 has 4 across the top and one each side midway down... the range has the same 4 at the top but I cannot find where the final clips are? Something is holding it on...but I'm reluctant to tug it just in case I'm missing something.

Can anyone help! RRS gone
