^Easier said than done. The most effective way is to remove the winsheild sprayer bottle, make the hole about 3" in diameter, and use air from under the front of the car. I would, however, advise the vented headlight cover.

Step 1: Remove passenger side FTP lenses, then the driver side so you don't look dumb.
Step 2: Start cutting.
I also got some honeycomb grille off of a Grand Prix and cut it to fit on both sides. Looked really trick, very OEMesk. This was on my last car mind you.
