Painting a chrome plastic grill

[daddy]

Nope... not yet, sorry. Didn't get a chance to get a grinder today. Atleast I haven't been banned for not getting it on ( so far! ) should be this weekend, it better be.

If I told you I would ban you, would that help?

No cause I cant find a dang grinder! If I had one it would be on by now

Just gnaw it off.

I went to the dentist last month, dont wanna see him again for a few more

Well, when you are done you won't have any teeth left so you won't need to see him at all.

Finally got it installed. Will post photos later. I dont really like it too much though.. Maybe I just need to order my overlays and it will look good.

Me too lol, I've been waiting awhile to do this project, and now that its done and on its just 'eh..' to me, idk maybe its just cause its new and i'm so used to my trucks look.

Ok, finally here are the photos.

Heres the mandatory before shot.

Removing the OEM grill was such a PITA, strongest plastic clips i've ever dealt with, all my fingers hurt by the end of that night.

Clipped into the surround.

With emblem layed on ( planning a black and dark red overlay in the future, it will still be a Ford emblem and Ford style, just the chrome will be PTM red and blue will be gloss black ).

On the truck.

I'm really not too fond of how it looks without the emblem, so I layed it on and decided I like it much better. Clipped it on and it looks like enhanced OEM which is my style.

I actually really didn't mind the OEM honeycomb grill, it looked very nice especially after I Krylon'd it black, and it gave the truck a more attitude look after painting the headlamps. Although cleaning it was such a PITA and drove me crazy when it was dirty. But overall, I think this works very well.
