Is this mod just a tap off, tap on exercise or is there more involved than meets the eye?

Anyone else performed this drill besides OP?

I really want to zing the bling without shelling out big bucks to do so.
The OEM 1M chrome tips should tap off quite easily with a plastic hammer or hammer and wood block..

Just send them off to get black chromed..
