Close, but I have a BS sedan with a hydrodipped CF grille. I guess you can't really see it from this angle (camera on phone stinks), but should give you a good idea.

I saved these pics when I was looking for headlight ideas but they have blacked out grilles too. Not sure who's cars these are.

head light mod makes such a huge difference IMO. i did both of my previous cars (wrx and 370) but i haven’t done the G37 yet. Hopefully I can find the time to do it soon. normally takes me about a day since the paint has to dry and all that ****. Previously i baked them at 200 degrees for about 10 minutes are you guys doing the same? Ill do a write up if I can’t find one

That's about the right baking temp & time.
Just be SURE to change to an STiR lens too while you have them opened up.
Makes a huge difference and only about $50.

Lol that's pretty much sold me on gloss blacking out the grille.

I would love to do the headlights but something about baking your headlights just seems wrong to me....

OEM midnight grille is the best IMO (even though mine is a pre-facelift model)

mines a pre face-lift as well. How much is that midnight grille though? I'm sure i can gloss black vinyl it for much much less.

I vinyled the grille on my old car and people thought it was painted!

Here is mine (on the left obviously). I think it'll look pretty good blacked out
