I'm giving in and I'm gonna try painting all of the silver black.

How do you remove the trim around the air vents on the driver and passenger side so I can paint them?

Any other tips or tricks would be great as far as prepping painting and removal goes.

Thanks!

Since I don't have a trim removal tool, what would be the next best thing? And I assume they pop right off of the dash?

Trim removal tool will be your best friend. A flat head will leave marks on the dash and the trim you try to remove.
