That looks pretty sweet! This may be a really stupid question but I'm afraid to experiment and find out by myself. But how do you get those on and off? I've always thought it would be fun to paint, update, replace, whatever, but I am terrified to start prying. I also have no idea what I would even do...

Never done it myself ... but I hear some dental floss pulled back and forth gently btwn the glue and the paint surface does the trick. Nice paint job! Got me thinking about doing mine in black chrome.

Oh ... and 3m double sided tape will get them back on after your done playing BadKitty :D
