H3 Need help front end body removal

[GoldilocsH3]

About 2 weeks ago I got in an accident messed up the front of my h3. Im taking it apart myself cant afford a body shop but im having trouble getting the radiator support. Im new to this page and dont know how to post pictures but Does anyone know how to take off the radiator support on a hummer h3?

Core support is welded to the body. I had 2 small front fender benders compliments of my daughter and after stripping down the front It was welded.

The core support is about $500 from the dealer. It is spot welded at about 60 spots. You have to drill out each spot, but just enough to drill the weld out, not clean through. Body guy told me you need about a dozen cobalt tipped drill bits (search under spot weld cobalt or similar) and some time and can do it yourself.
I chose to tow it over to him and have him do it efficiently. Then I ended up having him paint the entire thing single stage black. Hope to have it back in another month.

What's it with you Phoenix peeps rear rending people with your H3s? :roll:

Vanity plates seem to be the usual culprit...
