How do remove the Monte Carlo front emblem because I just ordered the same grill but not the lower yet.

Use a stiff putty knife, it is held on by adhesive, there are two posts on the back of the badge, but, at least in the case of my car, the posts did not have any nuts or clips on the back.
I will say I did not remove mine, I watched my friend who owns an auto body shop and painted my grill remove my badge, it could tell it took some effort, he had the car moving, but in the end both the badge and the bumper came out without a mark. NOTE he did not pry, he use a sharp stiff knive and pushed it between the bumper and badge at the right angle so as not to get into either one.

That is actually the SLP Grille upper and lower

Tony Stewart grille has no logos at all for it.

But a great addition to any Monte regardless

I have one waiting for warmer weather to throw it on.

True it is the slp grille not the true Tony S. I did look at both but I wanted the SS badge on the front not just the blank one

it is a overlay.. it just kind of makes the lower grill bigger and on a white car it will look good in satin black .. we are thinking of doing a wire mesh behind it (chrome)
