someone has a write up on here about the front ones, they recommended putting them in the oven at the lowest heat for like fifteen minutes and said they would come apart easily then. Don't quote me on that but, i remember reading it cause someone had a problem with a fogging lense i can't find it since search sucks... why are you taking it apart?

If you spray paint them they might not be reflective anymore. Especially if you make them black. That would be very bad seeing as it would make your car more difficult to see from the rear.
