Yep, after all the talk and voting and polling, im painting my grills.... A lil different from what i planned to do at first, but not bad nonetheless... Story to follow at 10.. (or whenever the hell i'm done)

PS it looks nice btw...

SHOW US DA PICTURES !!!

What did you do.. put silhouette of truckers women on your grill?

Damn i wish....

The coating that is on the grill was peeling in some areas between the chrome ring and the honeycomb, so i decided to paint her up. I pulled the whole thing off the hood, and i threw around some ideas, here and in my head, in photoshop etc. At first i wanted to do this, where i paint everything from the trim ring, and back silver.



Then i decided that didn't look good, and the paint would be kinda weird looking, specially on the round thing that sticks out far in the middle so i came up with this idea, paint the honeycomb area silver, but paint the part between it and the chrome black. This is were the peeling was occuring.


So far i have painted the honeycomb area, as i figured i'd rather have to paint black over any silver over spray then vice versa. Although my tape job was excellent so i won't have to worry about that... I took some pix, and i'll post them later tonight probably.

Hmm..i was thinkin about doing that but i didnt think paint would work on plastic? ..what kind of paint did you use? ..did you sand or anything?? ..im thinkin about doin that instead of gettin c ustom grills..

It looks great!!! Got some pic of me working on it...




I'll try to get pix that look like it does in real life. It was really overcast today so I didn't get a good pic/lighting of it. It'* freaking amazing!
