I just removed my Side Grills. It took about 10 minutes to tape, 5 minutes to remove the driver side and 2 minutes to remove the passenger side.
I decided to park the X5 outside for hours in freezing cold temperature. Bringing the vehicle back in to warmth and giving the passenger side a one, two, three pull straight out but at a slight angle to the back of the vehicle, all tabs broke quickly.
The driver side did not want to come off that easily. Using the bondo spreader, it was as IND described. Try to break the top tab first, then work the spreader down the grill to the next tab, and try to break that one. Bottom tab was the strongest but easier to get at now that the whole piece was lose.
