You need to loosen the screws holding the bottom of the front bumper to the bodywork. Car jacked up in front is good, car lift better still. Then loosen the screws holding the front bumper to the front wheel arch lining (screws are visible in front of front tyre). Gently pull the front bumper outwards allowinging enough space to slip you hand under the bumper to touch the front grill. Then reach up and slowly unclip the front grill from the bumper. Once grill is out, you can pull it through the gap.

Alternatively, you can remove the front bumper (You need a long reach torque screwdriver to loosen the bolts holding the bumper to the bumper absorbers), slots found behind the front number plate, and work on it once the bumper if off the car.
