If I were you I'd paint your existing grills on the car as they are an absolute bas***d to get off. Whatever threads you read regarding the removal its still a hard job. My hands were cut to ribbons. :thumbsdown:

I could sell you the OEM version (brand new).
Had them changed to chrome before the car left the dealers.
