Grille replacement on Jimny 3

Gen3-100x100.jpg



The replacement procedure generally consists of completely removing the stock front grille and installing the chromed front grille in its place, using the original clips and screws which had held the stock grille in place.

Replacement should be dead simple to do - just standing in front of the vehicle on a parking lot and using only bare hands and suitable screwdrivers.

Bottom fixings

  • Once those are done there are a series of trim clips around the indicator area and along the top edge. Just pull firmly.
