I am in the process of painting the front trunk. I have the gas tank removed to install a sway bar and was considering also painting the area where the gas tank sits and where the ventilation stuff is located. How hard is it to remove that stuff and re-install?Attached Image

So I took everything apart and did the painting....hope I can get it back together. Photos to follow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)
