Did you do the grill yourself or take it somewhere?

Nice! What kind of paint did you use on the grill? Did you sand it or prep it in anyway!

Agreed on the glossy grill--looks awesome. Please detail your method. I have not had good experience spray painting glossy paint and having it look good. The satin finish of the plastidip makes it goof proof but glossy looks better.

Thanks guys for all the comments. I think my paint method will make you guys laugh. Here's what I did... 4 coats of Plasti-Dip, 3 coats of Duplicolor Gloss Black, 2 coats of clear. Its holding up really well and everyone on base loves it. I did the headlights this morning and I need to upload the pics, but im stuck at work. Should be able to first thing in the morning! The headlights were easier than expected btw!

I looked at the first picture and thought "hey that looks an apartment I've seen before, oh well, bet it isn't...oh wait he is from Auburn"

Nice to see some Auburn people on here, War Eagle!


edit: How do you like the Pinnacle tint? I went with it on my car instead of regular tint and like it a lot.
