A couple weeks ago I bought a plastidipped front grill and emblem from a member (cvipgo). It was a smooth transaction and the grill/emblem arrived just as described. After seeing the plastidip finish first hand I have decided its not the direction I want to go in. So I am sending it off to 180 Customs to have it professionally painted.

What suggestions do you guys have for the color/finish? Keep in mind that I have the 2011 black chrome headlights and do not plan on painting them as I like the color. I only plan on removing the amber. Also my SSR wheels are flat black.

I was thinking black obsidian grill and shadow graphite emblem like this:





Or should I just go all black? Help me decide! Thanks

 

so just paint your grill all black...it'll look really sick =)

 

Well i like chrome so I would keep the logo chrome and paint the grill gloss black. I think the chrome on black makes the car pop. IMO.

good luck bro.

 

Haha i was looking at pics of your car yesterday. All black just looks so mean. Leaning towards that

 

yeah i'm all about all black, i get what some people say about the chrome emblem...thats why i have a chrome emblem and a black one LOL i change my mind sometimes so i put it on hahaha

 

All black ftw, or paint the emblem to match the headlights, that's sexy

 

haha thats a good point i forgot that since im keeping my stock grill i'll also have a spare chrome emblem. Im gonna have them paint it all black! Thanks SRG


Thanks man, i'll try both emblems out when the grill comes back and i'll see what i like better.

 

Right? Thats why I thought that black with the shadow graphite would match the black chrome headlights.

 

I'd do that then, then paint the headlight projector

 

Nice!!!!!

 

Here's a terrible iPhone pic gloss black with flat black emblem.

 

^ i like the contrasting finishes!

 

i may end up painting the grill graphite shadow (color of car) and leave the emblem chrome on mine.

 

hmmm... tough one. heres a ? tho. what is going to happen to the rear emblem Ant?

 

really like that black on black
