You have to drill those out and then glue it back together when done. It would probably be easier to mask the sections to dip them the different colors.

I masked the sections with the tape and newspapers. It was lookng good when I was dipping but when removing the tape the orange dip peeled off at the edge. And the border between two colours is not as straight as it should be. And the black dip is quite rought. It was my second time with that trim.

Now I must buy another cans and Can Gun Sprayer and separate that pieces before dipping...

Did you make sure to peel the tape right after you applied the last coat? If you let dip dry even a little the edges tend to pull away with the masking tape... To mask over alread dipped sections all it takes is having done a good job on that part and using a low tack tape.
