Did you remove the grille or paint it on the car.

Can you provide directions on how to remove both the grille and rear chrome lip?

To each his own, but in reality, I think the plastic chrome looks cheap, especially when it is chipped.


To the op, great job!

Great that my car has over 19k with not one chip on the grill.

Guess I'm lucky?

The grille is holding up fine, after a lovely high speed run today!

Here are some pics of the rear lip; painted ultra-flat black.
