Removing chrome hood trim - Help
I tried to find this by a search but no luck...
I removed the 4 bolts attaching the trim but there seems to be something holding the middle section in place. Has anyone remove this piece? Is there another bolt you can't see or is it some kind of tape?
thanks

there is a little square clip slightly right of center that you have to push in on the side of with a screwdriver to get out. get a flashlight and look in the hole and see what side you have to push on

LoL, don't hate on the carbon fiber hood. It's worth it for the look man and it will reduce the weight, but not by much. Mainly just for the looks.
