The front grill you have to tape off. The front lower one is removable but is a bit of a pain in the butt. The rear one comes off in minuts. I used plasticoat paint from your local auto parts store, just look up the paint coad in ther book and by some clear and really coat it well to stop chipping from rocks from the road.
