+1. Painted mine last night, exactly like that. Painting something like a grille is so easy. Just use smooth even coats from one side, to the other. And paint somewhere where you can't get overspray on anything important.

if you are going to rattle can it, i would suggest using a highgloss or flat black engine paint. i dont like rattling something and i certainly dont like using the rattle clear so using the engine paint will still give it the durability without having to do so. just a suggestion though, again, i would shoot it out of a mini gun and use an automotive 2 part clear on it but i can understand that you dont have the ability to do so. i would say the engine paint (especially for a billet grill) is the next best thing.
