Default car getting painted..Masking question?!?

What up,

I am getting my car painted on monday..I'm going to paint it championship white. Anyway i was going to be masking some of the stuff off myself, so they dont mess up. How should i go about masking the inside of the grill, bumper grill, and foglight sections of my bumper? what kind of tape should i use, and give me some tips on how to mask these parts. some of the parts are hard to get to. thanks

heres a pic of what i want to mask off.

BTW..do they just come off of the bumper? if i could just take em off then put em back on once painted it would be hella easy!!
