Fog Light bezels

Basically the topic says it all. Im in the process of painting different pieces on my front end. I already did my grill in a gloss black and also my front plate bracket as well so they match. Now im looking at it and the fog light bezels are a dull black. So I peeked at them but have not a clue on how to remove them. I figured someone here knows how.(Im looking in your direction color match guys!)

there are clips behind the light that need to be taken out. remove the lower plastic under the front facia look up and they are right there and they ae a pain in the a$$ to get out.

what he said! Take off the belly pans (4 10mm bolts in the rear a mess of 7 mm bolts on the front), pull the plastic slip rivets in the wheel wells to complete the removal. Slide under and look at the rear of the lights toward the center of the grille. Two slip clips in each fog, pop them out (screwdriver, panel popper, pliers, whatever you choose). After the clips are out slide back out and gently pry the bezels out-- you should see the two "tabs" that hold them in place. Good luck!

Or you could break the tabs off like I did. I removed the clips but they still didn't want to come off and I ended up breaking off one on each side. New ones were around $30....

When I added my fog lights, I broke the tabs (not intentionally) on the blanks (not my new bezels) when I removed them. so beeee careful.

Well it was inevitable that I would break something on my car with all the pulling and twisting and other stuff that I have been doing to my car as of late and it just so happened to be those damn clips! Well one of them at least. Lucky for me the other one is doing its job of holding the whole thing together until i can another set of bezels. I painted them up to match for the meantime until I can go buy another set as the ones I have now are really chipped and banged up from driving. I also noticed that my fogs are cracked from rocks and other stuff flying at them so i guess I will be replacing those as well! I also lost one of those can metal spring clips that hold it in place. I dont know where it went as i popped it out with a screw driver and it went flying and bouncing around and never landed on the ground. I spent about an hour with a flashlight looking but never found it.

Also broke a clip on my rear passenger side door panel when I was waiting for the bezels to dry. Top right clip snapped off. Man was I bummed out on this so hopefully the glue i used will hold it back on.

Super glue will hold the tabs on the fog bezels (I broke/twisted one of mine), but didn't work to well on the push pin in the door panel that I broke.
