Painting the Front Grill
 
I would like to paint my front grill black, not a big fan of the chrome. Has anyone painted the grill, and does it come out ok? I'm sure any good body shop could do it for me. Any comments/ pictures would be appreciated! :)

this is to anyone who did not DIY...if you got it painted professionally...how much they charge you? I would either do matte black or color-matched black.

Professionally varies on which body shop, the shops I know in So.Cal usually charge 100-120 dollars.

i did. you can see in my picture if it came out okay

Yeah I've been thinking of painting mine black too, but not sure how it's gonna look. I'll have to look around to see a side by side comparison of stock vs. black painted grills to see which one looks more sick

sTiLLBaLLiN37 01-01-2009 08:30 PM

on a BO do glossy , matte doesnt look good on OB

machinist 01-01-2009 08:32 PM

For sure...if I were to do it, glossy would be the way to go...nothin like having shiny teeth!

^^^ bro you need to do something to the headlights LOL

machinist 01-01-2009 08:39 PM

Gamedog...you know what...it actually looks pretty bad ***. You wouldn't happen to have a front facing angle shot, would you? If not, no worries. I just might have to add this to my list of mod's to get done. So far, I wanna get:

1) Black Betty's Grounding Kit
2) Interior Led Lights
3) Red Calipers
4) New Vossen Rims

I just gotta sell my stock 18" rims, but not sure how much to charge. If I paint that front grill, I'm gonna have to get a shop with a good reputation around Toronto so they don't end up doing a crappy job.

sTiLLBaLLiN: LOL... In time brotha... In time... Imma have to hit up Danny fo sho....

sTiLLBaLLiN37 01-01-2009 08:40 PM

Not a big fan of red calipers, everything else is a must! Those Vossen rims are sweet
