We've got them available for your car. Ours are produced using an OEM mold so the fit and finish is guaranteed. They are also produced from chip resistant ABS plastic and are a direct replacement 2-piece grill just like your OEM setup.

If you are talking about the lower mesh grills, its a pain to remove the bumper, believe me, I know. I was probably half way through removing it, and I decided to just put all the screws back in, it was taking too long. Instead, I just painted them myself. I just made sure to tape everything really well, although, after I painted them, someone posted a better idea.... instead of using a spray bottle, they used a sponge, which is better IMO. I also decided to paint my kidney grills while I was at it. And in the end, I was very happy to keep $150+ in my wallet, and I had a good time doing it. So, I recommend that you paint them.
