its just liek any other contique, 4 bolts IIRC. its easy and if i were doing it, id take it off. less chance of overspray on the car. just my opinion

Secondly, would my steps be simple as Sand, Prime, Paint, Paint again, clear, and clear again?



pretty much. i wouldnt sand the unpainted reflector. just make sure its clean and wax free and start with the primer. the more clear...the shinyier it will be!

Third, when sanding, would I use 400grit Sandpaper, 220, or what? What do you guys recommend? I know 400 is for sanding the prime, but would just using a regular rattle can work fine? If you guys can help out with that, Im going to go for it .



you could start out with 400 or so, but as you get more and more coats of paint on, go down to a super smooth wet sand paper. if go as far as 200 grit, for a nice look! HTH
