Lol nah just pain in ass . I used an exacto knife , but sanding is worse cause they are almost kind of rubbery , hard to sand .

I did mine like this a few months ago, nobody even notices really besides me. Sanding them down was a pain in the ass because they are kinda soft like others have said. Painted them with some flat black and they look pretty good on my Mystichrome:beer:
