Is it possible to take the letters out of the grill and replace them with another color? I didn't want to pry one out without asking.

Has anyone ever done it?

My grill is body color with black letters and you can barely see them, I thought I'd replace them with something shiney.

I've got a set of Letters if you mess one of your up. I linex-ed mine blk and didn't need the letters.
You may want an additional set to play with and keep your stock set.

Their held on by thin strong body molding tape.

Just pay for shipping.

English is not strong with Denny.
Use a hair dryer or heat gun to remove the letters(almost said "to get the letters off" but didn't want any ejaculation jokes).

I have also seen different ones on ebay that are alot cheaper.

Just get one of these and you won't even see the letters.

Better than an overdose of black.

If I was any good at photoshop, I'd put chrome or white in there to see how it would look.
It's either change the letters or put two more PIAA lights on front. Maybe both.

mbdougl: Thanks for the link. Those are great but I don't want matching letters. And I'm not sure how white would look with the chrome brush guard, and stuff.

Do they have to be plastic, or can I use some made out of aluminum? They wouldn't expand and contract very good, but I could polish them and stick them in there.

Dental Floss works great on the Damn things stuck to the grill.

Wiggle it back and forth, it'll bring 'em right up.

Do you know if those come in other colors? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
It looks like you have to order them custom made.

Yes. When you order them, they give you the option to order another color. They are very nice quality and don't take that long to get.
