laser red with oem front lip?

[ezpotato]

yup that's where i got mine and it was a great transaction... awesome color match, and factory fitment.. awesome deal. dont get something cheap and try to paint it. it's easier to spend the money on there.

^lol. My camera sucks. Lighting, and angles make it look different. You would have to believe your own eyes to tell. *Pictures on the internet never do anything justice.

Did you just paint your grille or is that aftermarket? Looks great.

any LR's with 06 sport bumper and a lip?

I Painted the stock grill with Duplicolor Bumper paint. It is a flat black color, and the paint is a stronger mixture of paints made to take rock chips. No problems with mine so far, and i love it. Painted my rear valence with it to.

Did you take the grille off to paint it? Where can you get that paint?

yes take the grill off, it is very very easy to remove. (pop hood, take out like 4 plastic clips from the top, then insert long thin flathead screwdriver into small holes on each side and twist 45 degrees then pull grill out toward you)

You can get that Duplicolor Bumper Coating from Autozone, Schucks, etc.

^ What he said.

^^ Does the paint ever come off when you wash the car?

[volcom_koda]

i have had the car wash pressure like half an inch away from mine to get rid of a nasty bug, and no chips. you have to sand the grill before you paint it, so the paint has something to grab onto. also, if you use this specific paint, it is a harder paint, so it will help prevent chipping.

Yeah I planned on sanding it. Thanks a lot.

I'm in the process of doing it right now...just put the first coat on. I would add though that getting the grille off is much easier if you use a small screw driver from the inside, rather than inserting it through the holes so you can pop out what's securing it.

^ yes wow, in fact i discovered that myself the last time i was dealing with my grille. it totally slipped my mind and thank you for reminding me... that will come in handy when i remove mine in the future, lol! so much easier than what i posted, indeed.
