I am going to plastic dip the front cheap chrome parts of the jetta black. I just did the wheels on my 2011sti and it came out great.

Question; how do I remove that lower center grill and the foglight grills on an 06tdi

Front center grill...pull hard. It is really hard to get out and you will most likely break a clip or two. Plastic trim removal tools inserted around the grill would probably help although I didn't do this to remove mine.

Fog light grills have one screw, then pull them straight out.

The grille has tabs all the way around that fit into slots in bumper. Take a flat screw driver and carfully spred and pull at the same time and it will start popping out all the way around.
