yes 

good advice - you could use a whittled down wooden chopstick. for mine i used a child's paintbrush - (the non-bristle end, wooden) - to feed the chrome piece into the rubber.

for installing the grille i used plastic nuts and bolts with a small piece of gasket paper to act as a non scratch surface between the chrome and the paint job.  same with the whiskers and moustache

+1 for not using any metal. Try using a wooden BBQ skewer or chiseled chop stick.

The main thing is do not use anything metal. When you slip you can damage the paint. I use the pointy end of a medium size cable/wire tie. One that is hard enough to help the rubber part over the trim ring. If the rubber has turned hard then it is almost impossible to get it back on. You can buy just the rubber boot if they have turned hard.
