Just in my limited assembly of our 35's, I wouldn't think that you wouldn't need to loosen it ALL, I would think that since the grill is bolted up and lines up nicely I would want to keep as much as I could clamped down and solid so that it all lines up like it is now, hopefully!!! I would also think IF you need a "little" persuasion of the inner fender panel, and front of the fender...I would think IF you have a nylon trim pr bar you could use it to "move" what you need without scratching the paint.
