I thought there were 2 screws up under the front windshield in the defroster vent too?... might want to check that before ya start yankin....

.. Maybe, on those front grills.. also do the lower grills too... cut out the ribs...make it look less stock-y... thinkin about paintin mine black...just the slats/ribs

..I'm undecided on the black lips...from far away looks like there is no kit at all on it..

Well it depends on which one we are talking about. I was talking about the cluster trim. It just pops off. But for the actual dash there is a screw on each side, open door and you'll see one on each side and there are also two in the defrost vent. I think that is all of them.

Yes yes, one on each side of the defronst vent by the winshield as well. I've taken that damn thing off too many times! Thanks for the comments. It does kind of give you a miss conception from a distance, esp at night. I kind of like that though. Putting the door pieces for the skirts on soon and will put up a pic of that too.

i do think the black lips are kinda sweet but yea in the pictures it doesn't even look like it's there, it probably looks better in person--but i'd say silver would make it look clean.

but keep up the good painting. i wish i could paint stuff that clean. i have a stupid chip in my hood, very small, that i want to touch up because of stupid construction truck was in front of me!!!
