Looks good, good luck on the headlights. I have not gotten brave enough to try that on mine I will probally just buy a set with the halo's and LED's in them.
did you paint over the chrome grill?
how difficult was that?
and what extra steps were taken?
Thanks looks good fyi
Thanks guys!!!
This isnt actually my final paint job on the grill ... But I plan to do the same preping ...
Yes it is the crome plaited stock grill ... All i did was sand the hole thing down with a 600 grit paper and then cleaned it with soap and water followed by brake cleaners to make sure there was no greese on it and then did a bunch of light coats with a tempiture spray paint can ... this was a test paint job to make sure i liked it ... Im ganna keep it the way it is till it starts to chip if it ever does ... If so im going to sand it down again and spray it with an air gun with real car paint followed by a clear coat ... And im going to do the tail lights witch is reg black paint with alot of clear coat mixed with it ... Then plan to color match my handles and front lip and brakes ... Has anyone had problems painting the handles with chiping??
Damn this really makes me want to go out and do mine right now. Is that your stock grill insert? Or did you get an aftermarket one and paint it black? Thanks.
