Anyone else replace their front air ducts with painted ones? I saw one on NAM somewhere but can't find it now.

I bought a new set and had them painted Chili Red, but looking at the tabs I'm wondering if there's a trick to taking the old ones off without removing the bumper or breaking the old ones to get them out.

Thanks in advance.

 

Here's a thread I participated in on the subject. I'd considered painting or wrapping mine but since I didn't see an easy way to pop these off I put it on the back burner. Eventually I pulled the bumper when installing my FMIC but by that time I'd decided against doing it and I left the brake ducts alone. Removing them with the bumper off is a cinch but with the bumper installed mine just wouldn't budge.
