Lightbulb DRL Delete Possible?

Hey guys, I was just wondering if a DRL on my 2010 W212 would be possible. I don't like the look of the DRL on the car, so I was wondering if it'd be possible to just have inserts without any frame for a light.

Some questions I have:
How do I take out the DRL frame? (I don't have the screws)
I can't find any DRL frame inserts that I want online, could it be made?
Is there a shop or someone that can manufacture custom inserts/installation? (Located in SoCal, if you can PM me. Cash ready.)

Any input would be appreciated. I've included photos down below.


With the DRL currently.

One is DRL, one is FOG light on each side.

Why don't you just paint the chrome around the lights black? Would not be able to hardly see them...

Thanks for your response! I was thinking of that, but the lights inside are broken and I don't really like the look of two holes in my front bumper. My idea is like the W213, where the bottom is "filled in".
