Black Grill

Post by stumpyrs4 » Mon Jul 27, 2009 12:22 am

Looking at blacking out the bonnet grill.
Is this simpoly painting the extg one, or can you buy a replacement already done?

If you paint it, are there any issues with paint flaking off the chrome?

Worth trying the black trim tape to make sure you like it before making a permanent job.
