Pretty much as the title really. I want to remove the grills in the rear quarters to have them repainted and was wondering if its a simple DIY job.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I think they're just clipped in - worth looking for a picture of one on the PET parts diagram to see where the clips (tabs integrated into the grille moulding) are.
