not yet I am going to though just to make sure this all work right.
I just ordered the grill yesterday, and I guess fedex strapped a rocket on that grills *** because it arrived this morning.

Have a pretty large section of the old grill sanded down and ready for primer so it will become the practice junker.

 

Well it was cold as hell here today, so no painting got done, but I did get it masked off and sanded down:


These pics were before the sanding.
EDIT: If anyone is interested in doing this, I will post a DIY after I am done with it.

 

It got above 60 today, so I finished sanding the edges, and got the promoter and the primer on there.


Sanded down


With Primer: Ended up shooting three coats on there just to be safe.

I am going to wait until tomorrow to shoot the color on there just in case the primer is still a little wet underneath the coats.

 

Did you order you a new Dodge emblem?

 

No, the old one came off. I just pry it out with my bare hands(if that tells you anything about Pinegar Chevrolet.)

 

Just gonna liquid nails the old one back on?

 

Yea, some special plastic adhesive. Trust me yours is just glued in too

 

For the emblem on mine I pried the old one off. It came off super easy. I think I used a knife or screwdriver to get behind it but I didn't have to pry hardly at all. For putting it back on I used silicone as that's what I had and it's held fine for probably a year or so maybe slightly more. However, 3m makes some emblem adhesive stuff that I now have and plan to use next time. I have a spare emblem from a spare grille incase I need it but mine is sticking fine with the silicone.

 

Looking good so far. You going to paint your honey combs any color?

 

Nah, just plan on leaving them black. Got the color on yesterday, but left it to cure over night. I have noticed that it is not a complete match, but its close enough. I did kinda jack the emblem up putting it back in, but I think there is some plastic polish laying around here somewhere that I will try on it.
