Different style for ur grill.....check it out

ill post up pics of the steps, although its not rocket science lol ull need masking tape a blade sand paper and the colors u choose...like mine i chose flat black and alpine white...start off by sanding down the entire grill after removing it from ur car and seperating the outter chrome part...as u see in my pics i painted ''hitlers mustache'' white...that was the first step before any...let it dry out, do another layer let that dry, then i put masking tape on the white painted areas and cut it out with the blade to have thin layers of masking tape....then spray the rest of the entire grill...same process...ill have the pics up in a few days when i repaint mine, im the first to have this style..so dont say u are lol enjoy

Done this last year. I kept the internal grills silver on pre-LCI and on LCI as well.
Check some photos.


Good effort but photos does not justice your effort and they look chromish in these photos.
