If you replacing the jet i'd suggest you just cut the old one, but dont cut the pipe. On most cars these jets are designed to be pushed through a hole and then two legs expand and push against the underside of the bonnet. Cut these legs off and then push it with the pipe attached through the hole. Remove the old jet from the pipe, push the new jet into the pipe and pull the pipe through the bonnet.

remove the grill then !!!!!!!!!! , there will most likely be some plugs you can lever off with a small screwdriver to reveal the screws holding it onto the car :)
