It’s a 2021 ford raptor. I had a box in the back seat and while driving it moved and put a dent in the metal speaker grill. How do I take it off I ordered a new one from Ford and it came in today. I tried googling it I don’t see anything anywhere Ford says it just clips and I can’t figure it out any help appreciate it.

You'll likely need to remove the whole door panel and disconnect the mesh from the panel. Without knowing what specific year you have, I can't post a youtube link, but I'd just search "How to remove (insert your year) F150 rear door panel".

I'm not aware of a way to get it out without doing so.

I got the part from Ford service and it just has a Clipse they said you just pop it out the old ones you have to pull the whole door panel. So I’m confused I don’t wanna ruin my whole door panel.

You have to take the door panel off. Once it’s off, you can pop the old mesh off and the new mesh will clip into place. But you can’t access the clips from the outside. Has to be from the inside/back of the door panel.

Like everyone else has said, I can 99.9% guarantee you have to take the door panel off. Just because the grille is metal doesn't mean it is attached any differently than the plastic grille. I suppose if you really want to fight the inevitable, you can just try prying off the speaker grille since it is already ruined. Maybe add some pictures of your door panel so we can see how different it really is?
