Yes, you will need to take it off, to prevent overspray around the rest of the truck, there is a screw right behind the little hook that has to come out, then it just pulls away, also disoconnect the power from the cigarette lighter and it comes free. And yes you have to sand it, you will probably have to go to your auto paint store and talk to them about how to properly prep it since it has a texture to it, you'll probably have to buy something to promote adhesion to the plastic texture.
