Need Help Removing Grille & Paint Question

[40belowceo]

I want to permanently paint my front and lower grille but need help removing the top grille and piece attached to the hood.

I seen another post on here but just wanted to confirm that there are no screws? Just tabs? Looks like my grille is also missing some plastic tabs. Any idea where I can buy them? I seen a 25pc set on ebay but that was for the bumper/trunk etc.

I plasti dipped my grill but I want to go permanent with the black. My question is after I remove the plasti dip, should I hit it with glossy black for plastic or just general glossy black then gloss alone over it?

Whats the best paint for the lower two grilles? They are a flat kind of black but I want them to match the grill and be glossy. Should I hit it with the same glossy black as the top?

Would anyone know if these are the clips? The seller states they will work on grille too but not sure.

The tabs for the trunk are the same for the engine. Those look right. How much, because I need some?

I'm with TDot, those look right.
The fasteners are along the top edge of the center grille.
At the bottom, there are clips/fasteners that the grills locks into. You need a long screwdriver to push down on the tabs to release them.

I bought a C-mod mesh grille and plan on installing it this weekend. I'll try to take some pics to show you what I'm talking about.

This weekend I noticed that the top lip of the grill has small bolts and screws and not these clips.Atleast two are missing on mines. Any idea where can get those?
