I removed my Engine cover Grille with dental floss as well. I warmed up the lid with the engine running and it seems a little easier since the adhesive got little softer from the heat . Since I got my CF Engine cover I bought a sheet of Aluminum mesh from my local metal shop. My friend at the local car stereo shop used some type of fiberglass resin/glue to attach it to the CF Engine cover and Radiator grille and painted them Black with a heat resistant textured paint. I came up with an idea on the Radiator cover since I hated the look of the stock Grille.
