look for threads on the sport grille there was a person there who did it seems simple but alot of work especially since Hyundai uses those plastic bolts everywhere. As I recall there a re few bolts right on top of the radiator area but the rest involving taking alot of the front end loose. not sure which type of replacement grille you want there are some that just fit over exisiting grill and other that replace check out the HMASERVICE site before you buy anything especially the OEM sport version. I looked into and decided cost was too much for grille and too long to remove stock grille to make it worth the effort.

the sport grille is the one that was on the limited edition Santa Fe and you can order just it from the dealer.

Its offered in England and you cant get it that easily here in America.
Although KAI is offering it for an insane price.

I can't say that I care for the look of the sport grill kit....

I added a stainless steel grill insert on my Santa Fe. They had several patterns to pick from.

I ordered mine from these guys...Cloud Rider
