Default Chrome Bumper Trim

Is there a way to remove the chrome front bumper trim? I really prefer a cleaner look. And if it is removable, would it look funky without the trim?

They should be clipped in, so if you remove the rectangular slots will be left behind.

yeah there are two versions of our bumper covers and you have the one that has the slots for the chrome cap. which sucks cause if damaged they are sold seperate or priced way higher, and if you want to do like your saying then you might as well get a new one and sell that one somewhere.

Well what if I were to consider that I'd just want color matched ones.. Is it possible to get OEM color matched front/back bumpers as well as grille?

But the front's plastic and the back is metal.. Wouldn't it look crappy even you did paint it correctly?

Not if you can't see both bumpers at the same time... muahaha. I dunno. Just a consideration.
