    I don't know if this helps much, but you have to remove the bar to take out the lower grille on the Berlina and Calais, because they clip in from the back. There isn't a lot of space between the back of the grille and the chassis so leaving the bar in and just unclipping the grille and removing it needs the bumper to be removed (that is, for the Berlina and Calais).
    I suspect the same would apply to the Exec set up.

    Why not just remove the bar anyway? It's only a matter of a few screws and unclips from either side. Takes less than five minutes, but it helps to have a friend to support the end because it will flop around a bit when you unclip it.

    To remove it, you have three screws along the top above the grille, one on each side in the front lip of the wheel arch (you will see two screws, but you only need to remove the lower one),one each side under the bottom corner of the bar and two mongrel "scrivets" behind the number plate. Just don't try to do it single handed.
