Who has painted their chrome grille? I have searched and havent found much!!
SubscribeWho here has painted their chrome grille? Do you have any pics? I want to attempt doing this, but I am afraid that the paint will chip off of the chrome in the end.
Thanks
Phil

Hmm.. Would you suggest painting your own grill? I read that if you sand it down (from course to fine grit), primer it, apply a few coats of the actual color and then apply a clear it should come out fine. However, all of this sounds a little too easy by just reading it.

I had mine done at my friend's shop. No chipping at all and it looks good. Unless you have experience painting, it would probably be worth it to pay to get it done.Originally posted by kingrukus
