For those of you that painted your front grill
For those of you that painted your front grill
Did they remove it from the car? Did you have to leave it at the body shop, etc, etc..... I have to paint mine because I am a moron and spilled degreaser all over it. Damn spots everywhere.

took it off the car, ts pretty easy to take off, you need a 10mm socket to take it off from the top, and there are clips on the bottom that just come out

If you got a 2k-2k1 YOU WILL HAVE to remove the front bumper and unscrew the grill trim. But the main grille is ATTACHED/PART of the bumper.

I used some krylon spaypaint, it's a semi gloss black, looks good. So when are you gonna stop spilling chemicals on your car? First the caliper paint, now de-greaser

Would any of you advise painting it while it is on the car? I would obviously mask the hell out of it..... How do I take my bumper off?
Anything other than automotive grade laquer, with a clear coat, will eventually look like crap. I've been looking into painting my grill since I have an airbrush, compressor, and familiarity with the type of paint needed. However, I'm having trouble finding a good match paint, aside from going to an auto body place and having them mix me and exact match, which looks like the only way to do it.

I used the same duplicolor touch up paint on the bed rails of my Dakota, and it looked factory, and lasted a long time. It was black of course, not too hard to match up.
