painting billet grill to match silver car?
Anybody painted thier billet grille on a silver car? I was thinking about painting it silver to match the car. How do you think it would look? Would the paint hold up to all the bugs and crap on the front end or should I get it powdercoated? Thanks.

well the reason I was thinking about painting it was because some of the black paint on the inside part of the grille is starting to chip off.
I've been meaning to paint behind it just haven't gotten to it yet.

O. ok. I've got the same problem with my grille now. The way I'm solving it is that I am just getting a new stull billet grille. I used some black touch paint on the parts that were chipped off and it looks horrible!
