They just pull off, there are tabs the fit into the screen but easy to put on and off. The screen may come with them too but the screens and the trim just pop in and out.

I have done all of my front in black, to help disguise laser shifters. Also individualized it a bit. I like the look.

Yes. I am thinking of getting it wrapped with matt black or carbon fiber.

Black mesh and spare set of these fog inserts ordered. Gonna pain the fogs inserts and go after the black out look. Does anybody know if it is easy to replace the mesh in the front bumper? Do I have to take off the bumper?
