Talking First Mod : Plasti-Dip Grill

Well, I really consider this Mod my first one, since my LED upgrades were really not that hard or time consuming. This process was really not that hard just the taking apart and installing the grill was a bit delicate. At the end, love the final outcome. below are some pics (would've uploaded more , but photobucket is trippin). Hope youll like.

Looks good.

I did the same when I had my 07. It held up very well through harsh weather.

Why? That is the bombdiggity!!! I did not do the midnight look but if you didn't black out your headlights or blackout the window trim, the midnight grille style looks good. Plastidip has proven to be very durable.

Looks like you did a nice job. I P-dipped mine too w/ just Mt Fuji left in chrome. I think I'm going to vinyl wrap (gloss black) my grill soon though. I don't mind the look of the P-dip but it's strange stuff to try to clean. It really grabs my microfiber towels so I just really kind of dab a soaked soapy sponge on it and try to keep it clean that way.

**Yeah , i just noticed the way the P-dip reacts to the Micro towels and that just didnt sit well with me. hahaha. thought i was the only one who noticed this.
