You gotta heat up the silicon around the lense.

I figured that much but what about the actual painting should i use a special paint or can i just use touch up paint from the deal and should I put clear coat on or not because of the shininess ( I dont think thats actually a word). Also should I mask off the actual lenses

when i do mine i am gonna heat them up and mask the 3 lights and 1 silver nub off then i am gonna use touch up paint from the dealer and the clear coat because the shininess would look sick!

Just make sure to use low tack, or adhesive tape when masking off the chrome you want to keep, because if u use regular masking tape it will pull the chrome off it really easily, and then you have ugly lights.
