#1 Remove chrome mouldings around front grille

If I want to achieve something similar to the look below, is it a matter of removing the upper and lower chrome mouldings (ignoring the badge for now):

Will there be holes etc that would need to be patched and repainted?

What about the bumpers without over riders? Are those commercially available?

Have you looked at how the chrome trims are held in place....see parts catalogue or just look at you car....I'm unaware of the bumpers being available....this is typically custom work....Steve
