Paint Match Grill
#12
WAY too much Chrome for my taste I'm not sure what else makes it "Lone Star" except the Texas thing. Hey also PURPL I noticed your front bumper looks like it is painted Black (or darker) Did you paint it? or is it an addition? Looks good

As is the norm on this Forum it seems we have helped each other. I was wondering what the front bumper would look like if I painted all but the chrome strip. I like the look Think I'll try it this week end. Did you have to remove the entire bumper or did teh strip come off without it? I'm glad my photo's helped you decide chrome or paint. I'm going to use the duplicolor as with the grill let me know if the Rust-Oluem works if the duplicolor doesn't I'll try it.

have any of yall heard of this metalcast?......its basically a colored clearcoat, you just clean the chrome and scuff it, then adhesion promoter, then spray it on and it looks anodized......they did a chrome valve cover on TruckU and it looked pretty good
