Paint chips, I tried painting my friends grille it was chipped within a couple days. Save your money and get it powder coated.
Just go to google then local and type in your city, state, and powder coating. You'll find someone, hopefully.

I beleive the inside of my grille is alreadey powder coated black and the person that I talked to said that they will have to burn it off to powder coat the whole thing. He said it might warp the alluminum. Your thoughts?

so does anyone have any idea what black i need? I have a 01 black ss...i think i'm just going to go the cheap way and paint it...even if i have to do it every six month..i do a lot of highway driving..so either way the powder coating or painting will get chipped.
