Default anyone make a vinyl decal for grille area?
I'd like to get a billet grille, but want the area behind to be flat black. Does anyone make anything like that, or am I just better off having it painted?

rattle can it. A small area like that should be real easy to get it took look good with a rattle can. Exspecially if your going with flat or even a satin.

I was in the same boat as you just a few months ago. I was in search for some type of vinyl for that area, but was unsuccessful. Look here to see my spray paint job:

Walmart brand (none in particular), and semi-gloss finish. just make sure your coats are light, so you don't get drips.

Just go to a local vinyl shop, im sure you can easily get a piece made for that section or just paint it like others have done.
