Im making one of those Home Depot grills I was just wondering wat color I should paint it. Make it the same color as the car or just black.

 

Your car your choice. You pick what you think looks good.

I was thinkin the same as the car but I dont know where to get the color at.

 

i'd paint it to match the car,monchromatic color schemes always looks good,but a nice classy chrome one will look just as good.

 

Paint it the same as the car... I traded my chrome GXE grill for a painted grill after I smacked a deer... I like the look! But it is completely up to you!

 

Heres what its basicly gonna look like I just have to zip tie the gutter guard in and it will be good to go. It only took 8.00 dollars to make.

 

wow. that looks nice!

 

thats hot...

 

I just got done installing it and it looks awsome. I drilled small holes on the back side of the grill in the little supports to hide all the zip ties away and it worked perfectly. Heres some pics tell me what you guys think.

 

hmm, the grille itself looks alright. But I would have it body colored to match, not black. It looks very out of place and prefer the stock grille to that one.

 

It's a good start. That mesh is Really a pita to put in there without warping it. Just a though, maybe paint the mesh black anf the plastic part body colored?

 

I got the same on painted white ( my car is white) and its a GXE with the chrome finish around it and a nissan logo in the middle looks hot i had ppl giving me props. But it didnt cut out the plastic in the middle that was stock i left it there cause if a rock or anything at a speed flies into the grill it will go right throw the home depo Net so for backup i left the original plastic and you cant even see thats it there. I also used a spray can that also prevents it from rusting cause when i did a sample without painting it it started to change color in a matter of 3 weeks like 2 days of rain and like 5 car washes.

 

Wow. Welcome to 1998.

 

Was trying to take it easy on the kid for trying...

 

I want to paint it the same as the car but I dont know how much it would be or if the dealer would still have it.

 

Try buying touch up paint here;

is the CH0 and the CHO the same thing?

 

Go look at the paint code underneath your hood on the drivers side firewall...

You should've filled in the four 'cutouts' on the underside of the upper grille frame

I used to do that on mine.. makes the grille 1000x more sturdy/professional looking/etc

 

Not bad but I agree with goon on the color scheme. Actually kinda considering doing this mod myself except paint the mesh black, keep the burger and with color code the frame or leave it chrome..iono we'll see what goes best
