I have not taken mine off but that shouldn't be that difficult. Remove, paint them the stripe color then reinstall. ...or eliminate them and go with wiper nozels.

Just remove your under hood liner. The nozzles are easy to remove, I believe you kinda squeeze them together and remove downward. Do your stripes over the nozzle hole. After the stripes set up for awhile, cut an x in the stripe over the nozzle hole. Wrap the stripe under, under the hood. Reinstall nozzles and hood liner.....

Pull the hood liner fasteners out with a large strong kitchen fork, disconnect tubes & squeeze tabs & remove nozzles from top of hood.

you don't need to remove hood liner... I removed my nozzles to do my stripes.. only had to reach up under the hood liner.. tricky part was disconnecting hose from nozzle. After that, just push nozzle back and up (from the bottom side of hood).
