WestCDA, care to share a DIY as to how you removed the covers only braking only 3 of the 30 plus locking tabs?
I wish I had know there was a way to do it, but at $240 a set I didn't want to do too much self experimentation. I spent $30 on the paint and $8 on tape so for under $40 and what will come to less than 3 hours of my life after they are wet sanded and buffed. I am exstatic with the finish already before wet sanding and buffing witht he exception of the one tiny run and minimal orange peel.
I will post up pics of the final product this weekend.
