this is what my grill used to look like


the paint was chipping pretty bad, so I decided to paint it again this week, and now it looks like this


the last 2 pics are taken with phone, so the quality isn't great.

let me know what do you guys think
thanks

 

I think the black looks better. Kinda stealthy looking.

 

I actually like how the silver matches the wheels....looks cool. Not that black is bad or anything, since that's what I'm running...but for some reason I think the silver looks better on your car...

Nice body kit too.

 

Looks great, specifically on an SE IMO. I made this comment to BluesBrkr some time ago as he has done this to his black SE as well. Nice work.

 

I agree with MacAlert, it does look kinda stealthy, and thats always cool. But I would say go with the silver, it gives more definition to the lines of the car.

 

Well since the paint keeps chipping off, you really only have two colors to choose from 1.Primer grey or 2. Primer rust. What ever color they paint it, make sure to put flex additive in the paint, it will help reduce chips.

 

what u use to paint? just regular spray paint?
i'm thinkin bout doin mine too... do silver cuz imma do mine black............=).... no but really the silver looks better on ur car.....

i got a similar mashimaro thing on the passenger side of my car too..... be sure to take it off when u go to the track.. i hear u can see it from the stands and it looks madd gay... haha

 

i like th e black better. it looks cleaner. The silver kinda gives the car a "big nose" appearence as your eyes are directed at the grill.

 

Is that rice I see behind your maxima? Ohh yeah, I almost forgot. I like the Black grill more than the silver. The car seems to be more "solid".
BTW: Did you think of painting that Hamburger black?

 

nah, not gonna paint the hamburger black.
i just think black looks more aggressive

btw, why is that car rice? its a typeR, which is still pretty fast.
he doesn't have the fartcan exhaust on it.
only thing he did was clearcorner & lowering....

 

I prefer the black. Silver looks cheaper to me. I think the black looks stealth, like others have said. Looks very nice BTW.

 

How about two colors, keep the black then do that silver on the front of the grill, it'll look like the stock except better because you'll have less silver. Here's how it will look sort of:

Just tape it up and paint!!!

 

Paint it black. It looks better than silver. I think it gives it that humble look.

 

i like the silver better. looks cleaner IMO

 

i like the silver too

 

DEF silver, i think it looks sooo much better. more classy

 

Thanks, .45

My vote goes for black....but I admit I'm biased, too...

 

Hmmmm, okay.

Well I'm not biased. I love the black painted grille. Not a fan of the touring lip though

 

I must admit the black looks pretty damn cool, but just something about the silver and how it stands out/matches with the car... hard decision, but i'd say 60% silver, 40% black, haha

 

Thumbs up on the black.

 

I like the black for sure. Your car looks sweet as always !

 

The only thing about a black painted grill is that your paintchips will show up noticeably faster
and uglier- having to repaint more often- Trust this is my 4th Black car (thats whats kept me from painting mine)

But they both look hot- I always liked the Silver job
you did though- compliments the wheels nicely

 

I like the black . Makes the front look mean!!!

 

I say paint it black

 

Black!!!!!

 

thanks y'all for your opinions
i think i'm gonna keep it black for awhile
if the paint start chipping, i might go back to silver

I like black b/c it makes the car looks more aggressive
i like silver b/c it compliments the wheels well
=)

 

Also like the black.

 

Hey bio...if you could take better pix, because that grill looks like a different shade of black (is that even possible?? )

it does look better tho, but I am more partial to blue!

 

EWWWW!!! this car looks looks.... HOT. I love the black....

 

HEY!.... is that a Mashimaro on your right passenger front window? Is that the Girlfriend's doing........?

 

I personally like it silver. .

 

Mashimoro... lol.... us asians are weird...

hey maximo... shouldn't that be BAWSTON?

man, haven't been to boston for over a year...

 

I JUST GOTTA ASK BLUE, WHAT IS THAT BETWEEN YOUR FOGS...IT LOOKS TIGHT , AND WHERE COULD I GET ONE OF 'EM ?

 

Grille Tech lower inserts...that are primed and painted silver...because they started to rust.

I like the black so much more. The black stealthy look is nice.
