Default Got my new Tundra last week..!!

Well, I took the plunge and purchased an '07 Tundra Regular Cab / Short Bed, 5.7L V8. This truck is a monster!!! Feels like more than the advertised 381HP. I'd swear it felt like it accellerated better than my S/C 00 Tundra Access cab V8. Has anyone purchased a Carriage Works billet insert for the upper grill shell? I cant figure out how to remove that blastic plastic cover which needs to be removed for the install. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Congrats! Regarding the grille - do a search under "Carriage Works" or "billet grille" because I do remember a post a couple weeks ago that covered the install of all three sections of the CW grille.
