WOW Bob that hood turned out REALLY good !! I still think you should re-consider bainting your grill though, I think it would finish it off nicely. If not the entire grill ( which I would do ), at lease paint the insert ( gray ) areas. While you're at it, maybe consider getting some of that plastic paint and paint all of the gray areas around the front bumpers including the fog light area.


Did you use a rattle can to paint your hood or what?

 

No I sprayed it with a HVLP gun. Not bad for my first paint job on a vehicle.

I was going to spray the whole grill black and the grey plastic too. The chrome on the grill looked so nice that I couldn't do it. I took off the nasty bug guard too.

 

How about just painting the grill inserts to start?

If you paint the gray areas around the bumper, DEFINATELY take pics of that. I've though about doing that several times.

Lookie lookie ... LMC sells em already

 

Yeah, that's where I got the idea from! I thought it would be cheaper just to paint it. It's been raining all weekend here so I have not taken any better pictures of the truck. I'll get some better ones for sure.
