Default Removing Honeycomb Grill Inserts

Hey all,

I would like to take my grill inserts out and paint them, but I wanted to get some ideas of how you mounted them back in after you ground/cut the plastic off. I was thinking of drilling a small hole in the center of the mount and putting small screws in with washers, but not sure if this is my best bet.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure the honeycomb inserts are just held by clips and screws at the corners...just undo the hardware and it should come out
