Default black out grill pony

i just blacked out all my lights using tint and i now want to paint the pony in my grill black but i looked at the way it is attached to my grill and do not want to break off the studs on the emblem. i am unsure of an easy way to get it off so i can paint it and still be able to re-attach it.

When you remove them the clips usually break off.

We have painted replacements - Black only is $75.00 shipped.

Choose Black Base Coat Only from the drop down box

Thanks

Where r the black outs? I don't see black outs? wtf! lol jk. Is it possible cut out shapes in the tint after it's dried on? I was thinking of doing something similar and cutting out the GT emblem on one of the fog lights. WOnder what it would look like with them on

You will break the prongs removing it, but you can tape it back in place with double sided tape. $3 for primer, $3 for black spray paint, $3 for clearcoat spraypaint, $2 for 400 grit sandpaper.


5SPD07GT, where's the Palin sign???
