Default Flat Black SLP Grille

Well here it is. I don't recommend trashing a good SLP grille to do this but I got this one for free a few years back because the finished was messed up on it. I gotta say, it looks better than I thought it would.

Not bad at all, ...,
IMO, I would've went with the SOM & flat black on the inside area only.
Is the Manta stripe a matching color scheme?

Ha it's funny you say that. They're the same paint. I'm gonna redo them soon, I just did a quick lens restore on them recently. They'll really match once the lens is perfect and the paint is fresh.

Looks much better than the gloss IMO. Something about the gloss looks "cheap"

I think it looks great. It would definitely complement a flat black berger panel.

Rattle can lol. I was going to do the body color/black scheme but this was alot cheaper and faster. I think doing body color/ Flat black would look pretty cool, but I'm a fan of the shiny/dull contrast.
