Paint[ed] Grill?? *Finished on Pg.3 56k warn*
 

Hey guys, i just bought a grill the other day, but i as wondering if my thes for my car is gonna be green and black, do u think it would look better painted or just normal?? and if i paint it should it be Clover green or Black??

Re: Paint Grill??
 

please dont paint it black.

Re: Paint Grill??
 

lol y not a glossy black?

Re: Paint Grill??
 

Nahhyy on the black. Isnt it pretty obvious... well do you plan on getting a CF hood?

Re: Paint Grill??
 

the thought has passed through my mind alot, but nothing is definite. what would a cf hood have n e thing to do with it?

Re: Paint Grill??
 

why would you paint it black? what kinda of grill is it?

Re: Paint Grill??
 

Negative on painting it. :tdown:

Re: Paint Grill??
 

uhmm yeah what kind of grill is it?

Re: Paint Grill??
 

ifs its the altezza grill, paint the trim your car color, else it will look ugly and cheap

Re: Paint Grill??
 

yea if it looks like ^^ his grill or mine, you should paint it. i think a paint shop only charges like 20 bucks to paint it matching the car. or you can do it urself. but like ^^ said just paint the trim of it and leave the center mesh part black. ive been meanig to paint mine but im just a little lazy.

Re: Paint Grill??
 

yea its the tezza grill lol

Re: Paint Grill??
 

I left mine black. I think it looks good. If you do go with Clover Pearl I would like to see it. Let me know if you do.

Re: Paint Grill??

i think it looks so much better than non painted ones.

Re: Paint Grill??
 

What did that run you to get done. Did you just take the grill in or did they do it on masked?

Re: Paint Grill??
 

Probably a ticket. LOL.

Re: Paint Grill??
 

Damn, you suck at the internet.

Re: Paint Grill??
 

please stay on topic. it cost me $40 to get it painted. i just handed it to them and the shop did everything. you can probably find someone to do it cheaper, but probably not by much.

Re: Paint Grill??
 

Yeah true. I might do it myself. Such a small area. Might be able to find the paint in a spray somewhere like pep boys or advance. Im going to check into it. looks more matching. Rennen you may have talked me into painting it. Maybe.

Re: Paint Grill??
 

hey guys like if i clear coat it after i apply the paint, shouldn't it be smooth enough so that i don't have to sand it???

Re: Paint Grill?? *Question Update on Pg.2*
 

ok it turned out awesome

already had primer from when i did my minor engine dress up
already had tap
the paint was 20 online
