yea i will paint them both, but not today.

How did you get the emblem off is it bolted on?

No if you take off your radiator cover , look down behind the grill, there is four clips you lift em up and push and it will come off, the black part os the hard part. Theres two holes on each side with clips in them you gtta push them back and fold the black piece in the middle the slide the bottom out.

The black part is certainly a bit tricky to remove, but if you take you time and look it over, you can see what needs to go where. There is a little clip in each 'horn' that you can kind of sort of get to. Then the black piece folds a bit and clears little ears on the ends at the top of the emblem.

Looking good to me! I really like how the grill badge came out.
Now if someone would just make a 2 piece tailgate emblem so this could be done easy!
Especially with my 3 tone emblem. UGH!
