Painted my Grill this weekend.....love it

It was so simple and the Plasti-Dip is so easy to use. Literally took me an hr and i put the grill back on and let it finish drying on the car.

Now i just need to black out the headlights.

Grill is super easy to remove 5-10 min max.

I honestly coated till there was no chrome showing and then i coated again

As far as doing the FX, I already asked my wife wha she thought and I got the ol "dont touch my car"

I like the matte finish, at least on the red, that's a great looking combo.

The matte of the plastidip matches the lower grill color better than glossy
