Default How much of the lower bumper(grill over radiator) is 1 piece?

Driving down I95, a shrouding off the car in front of me came loose and slammed into my grill at around 80mph. Needless to say it did some damage. Didn't make it threw to the radiator but it destroy the lower grill and bent my AC line.

Well, now I have to get it fixed. I cant remember if the lower grill was all one piece or not. The bumper diagram looks like the grill is 2 piece but from looking at it, seems like the bottom half is part of the bumper.

So, what's the story here? Do I need to get a new bumper or can I replace just the whole grill? Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance...

no grill craft, grill-tech or any other gutter guard style for me. i personally dont care for the look.

i know #3 is one piece, im just ont sure how it fits. meaning, is that the whole thing or is that like backing or what?

also, anyone know how many clips are back there? i going to order one up i guess and having the clips wouldnt be a bad idea...

The entire bumper can be easily removed. Screws and bolts are the only things that hold it in place. Detailed instructions on removal of the bumber can be found at:

http://www.ricks2k.com/info/instructions/diffuser.pdf

The first four pages of the PDF explain bumper removal.
