Awesome. To prep the chrome surfaces, I just wipe the pieces down with alcohol. To remove the grills, losen all the star screws on top of the bumper. Bend the bumper away from the car, use a flat head screw driver to pop the top and side clips of the grills (you'll need help). Once the the top and side clips are popped out, just yank the grill out with force (it's too difficult to pop the bottom clips, you're not going to hurt it). Post some pics once you're done.

I plan on doing the rest of the trims, but not the wheels. Plasti Dip surface has a lot of pores, so when it's raining the surface will hold a lot of water. This means that the wheels will get wet unevenly, causing vibrating on wet days. This is fact tested by many of my friends who have plasti dipped their wheels, maybe glossifier will help with the water issues.
