Grille Inserts
Does anyone know how to detach the grille inserts? Instead of getting the "chrome grille inserts" straight from the dealer, I plan to paint them to match my body color. I was trying to pry them off from the back, but it almost appears as if they're attached to the center emblem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello
The fins are atached to the actual bumper, the star emblem is attached to the black plastic inserts which are inserted into the fins. I hope this makes sense. I don't think it can be done....
