It can indeed be done. The star is quite easy to remove while all the chrome slats can be a bit of a pain in the a$$ to get off. A little bit of dexterity and paitience will go a long way.
Since you look new on here, welcome to the forum, and remember the advanced search is your friend. You will find several DIYs on grill removal and painting, etc.

Welcome to MBW
If you find to difficult to remove the chrome pieces, you could use some painter tape to cover them.
And remember the search buttom is your friend.
