I finally got some time to paint my grille. I am pretty happy with the outcome, still need to fill in the NISSAN though. And wash er.





Thoughts?

 

great job! I just blasted my grille with all black flat paint.
avoid the lasers, paint the shiny trim & emblem as well!

 

nice but some douche wrapped a rag around your plate...

 

^^^ . Anyways, nice job homie!

 

Looks great. I like it.

 

Looks good....but don't you think it is going to chip pretty quickly.....and if so...when you touch it up...will it look okay??

 

i got 3 clearcoats on er she should be good from chips...............i hope

 

Nice job man.

 

What paint and procedure did you use? I want to do this also but I'm scared...was it hard to do? I think it looks great, good job!

 

looks good, but i sorta think if u got rid of shininess it might look little better.... or at least black out a circle on the Nissan and keep the Nissan word shiny. gives it a new twist with just rectangular Nissan logo. But just a personal opinion... not saying its right or wrong not hating whatsoever)

 

i Blacked out my entire grill and get compliments on it all the time. If you're crazy about the chrome trim, keep it. Personally I like the allllllllll Black.

 

I figure i will keep the chrome trim until i can get inside my headlight and give them a paint.

 

hey could you list out the steps and products you used so that I could do the same, I think it looks amazin. If you could that would be great.

 

i removed the grille cleaned it and removed the dark film with a razor. I wiped it down with paint prep wipes and then maked off the trim. (3M tape the thin type (Green)). A few coats of automotive black paint (areosol) and 3 clearcoats with the clearcoat paint from Canadian Tire (pep boys in the states).

 

Yea, that looks good no doubt about it..
