RLM-F Grill Update

RLM-F Grill Update (Edit: AT, not RLM grill)
No, not a new AT grill
...I'm calling it the AT-F(fake) grill I got off egay in January.
I finally got around to painting it last week and installed it today. The metal tabs that hold the mesh on were bendable so I was able to easily remove the mesh for painting. Shot it with my cheap-o HVLP gun. I also tinted the headlights with 30%(light) vinyl film from ebay to help eliminate the bright chrome look. Enjoy...
BTW: the E&G grill that was on my car is for sale in the FS section![Wink](https://maxima.org/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

I only tinted them to get rid of all the chrome on the front of the car. I'd like to paint them black but don't want to bake the headlight just yet.

Right, I may put a tigher mesh on it. I also plan to put some type of Nismo emblem on it. Just can't find a good one yet.
