So tommorow i am going to bring my grill down to a local body shop to get it painted. I just want to make sure that it is safe to drive around without it. The weather for tommorow calls for rain, as well as the next day. Thanks

 

Good Luck!..

How much is it costing you?

Thinking about painting my grill as well.

 

you'll be fine without the grill. If you have descent can skills you can DIY painting the grill. Search around there are some good threads on this.....

 

not sure yet i have a friend who took it to a shop called combine in commack and he said it cost $50 bucks. i think mine might be a little more expensive since i want them to put a clear coat over the grille and Mt. Fuji so im assuming around $70. trying to finish the blackout look for my car, now i just gotta order vinyl and wrap the chrome trim

 

I was thinking about doing it myself but dont want to worry about messing it up and having noticeable smudges and things, it would bug me every time i walk up to my car.

 

for $50 - 70, I'd get it done by a pro for sure.

Are you going dark?
or are you going body color?

Be sure to share some pics when done.

 

Im hopefully gonna get it as close as possible to O.B. Most deffinetly will post pics.

 

I was thinking of blacking my grille come springtime but the mention of body color got me thinking. Anyone ever do an '07 sedan in the silver color?

meh some sandpaper and a can of semi gloss spray paint will do the trick

 

I wouldn't be too concerned about rain. If it was hot out there may be a air flow pattern concern for cooling purposes but sort of hard to state that without a wind tunnel. What would concern me the most is road hazards such as a rock getting kicked up, etc. but that exposure should be of a very limited period unless the paint shop really takes their time.

 

how do you post pics? Picking up the grill tommorow and never posted pics before lol...

 

make an account with photobucket.com and upload the pics, then select the Img link underneath and post here

 

so i went to get my grill reinstalled and it wasnt ready. now im at work at the shop closes before i get out. is there any way someone can jack my headlights and/or pop my hood without the grill in Just wondering
