I thought let me see if I can get at the tabs from under the hood, no cigar there either. Can one of you lead me by the hand and tell me where to look?
Noting that 2/5 of the grill is solid, not so sure painting it without taping off those solid parts so the whole thing looks like a grill would look so good. But if I can find a way to tape off the bottom of the solid squares it should look pretty nice....
Can I see these tabs of which you speak from the front of those grills?
Thanks Popeye

The tabs are on the grills.
Stick two fingers into the grill, right next to the center body part. Push to the outside of the car, left on the left one, right on the right one, and they will move sideways. Do a little twist, push and pull. They will come out.
Once you do it the process will seem simple and easy.
You
can do this from the inside of the car by hittin' a bump, or a ramp, just right. I cannot guarrantee you won't scratch the parts so I do not reccomend it.
