The locations of these screws are shown in Fig. 4

These tabs are visible from inside the engine compartment (Fig. 5). Insert a slotted screwdriver between the grille frame and the bumper at the outside of the vehicle (Fig. 6.), and gently pry the grille frame from the bumper by freeing each of the four tabs as you work your way around the grille frame.
