Matte Black VS. Gloss Black??
Hey fellas,
Ok, finally.. I will be working on my grill over the weekend.
I've been wanting to pain my grill for a loooong time, but been so damn busy with work and what not. Anyway, will be painting this probably this Saturday and wanted your opinion as to what looks better.
As of now, I am leaning towards the whole grill painted matte black minus the mt. fuji
I purchased a can of DUPLICOLOR flat black bumper coating and black primer with some grit paper for this job.
So.. what do you guys like???
Matte black or gloss black for the grill??
Also, should I leave the top and bottom portion of the grill chrome??
FYI, I do plan on painting my lights as well later on.
Any advice or feedback is appreciated.
Enjoy your weekend yall!
GO LAKERS~~~!!!
