You know the one with the water spots on it beneath the hood grill ;) It comes out very easy. Pop the hood open, remove the two metal clips on the upper corners and then unscrew the black plastic plugs holding it on. Gently pull on the louvered peice and peel off the double sided tape holding it on. It should now be in your hand and ready for cleaning, painting, etc... I've left mine out for better heat extraction (mind you I don't drive in the rain much).

Took mine off right after I met Jamie. I was still learning how to chop my Evo. :D
Now it seems there isn't a peice of the car I haven't taken apart. :p

It does look much better, not to mention helps release more heat. :thumb

It's not that bad. It only took a day to remove bumper, remove FMIC, remove header, install EGT, install
header, install new FMIC and put the bumper back on. In my small ass garage. :p
