Default 2003 grill removal

Trying to remove the grill on my 2003 so I can repaint. I got the top screws off but cannot seem to get it free from the clips on the bottom. Any suggestions. I have already searched and the things on there don't help. Thanks

***update-I got the ones off from under the headlights becaus instead of going under I went in between the headlight and the grill piece and undid it from the top, but I don't have access to the top of the two actually behind the grill

Well I got it off. For anyone else needing the same help I did: what I had to do was go from underneath the bumper and actually pop the clips out of the sockets on the truck. So basically they are still attached to the grille. It was easier and they came right out.
