Has Anyone Changed Out Their Air Duct Trim?

I'm planning on switching out my cerium air duct trim to the shadowline and was wondering if anyone on this board has done this or can lead me in the right direction to find it.

It looks pretty simple looking at the actual piece. they look like you can pry them out at the clips and push the new ones back in place but i wanted to double check before i get started and end up breaking things lol.

any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance!

bump on this one...Im in the same boat. I did paint my glass black as I already swapped out the grille for the BMW perf Carbon Fiber Grille along with my mirror caps so the onlyh cerium bits were the air intake trim...paint job isnt great and i want to replace them alltogether: (left) 51-11-5-A2F-CC3 and (right_ 51-11-5-A2F-CC4. Anyone care to chime in on the install?

There have been a few that did it without removing the front bumper, it wasn't easy.
