Netbeans groovy 1.8 support

I am using NetBeans 7.1, which comes with Groovy 1.6 support. I have to do a Grails project, but with Groovy 1.8 support. So I downloaded Groovy 1.8 installer, installed it and added the Library in Netbeans -> Tools -> Libraries (and removed Groovy 1.6 library). Now whenever I use some stuff added in Groovy 1.8 within my Grils project, it still underlines it and throws "cannot resolve" error... I was googling it for last 2 hours and everything I find seems I have already done... it starts to give me a headache... Any suggestions on how to solve it?

NetBeans support from Groovy has -- until recently -- stagnated.

The Groovy support (as you say) is for Groovy 1.6.X, and the Grails support is similarly old.

There has very recently been some activity in trying to improve this, but at the current time you are probably better using Eclipse, STS (both free) or IDEA (paid) if you want proper IDE support for up to date Grails development.
