5$ 1978 grille facelift/refurbish!
 

figured id share my 5$ grille re-modeling on my 1978 k20.

2 cans of MIRACAL premium aluminum silver paint(cheap dollar store stuff)

1 can of MIRACAL gloss black paint(cheap Dollar store stuff)

and some masking tape from my G-ma haha.

I removed the bowtie and strips,washed it and dried it,took quite a while to spray the entire thing the silver evenly nd get all nooks and crannied, taped off and re-painted the black in the strips.

and painted the Yellow bowtie black.(dark maroon and black truck)Whats your opinions on the black bowtie? i didnt like the yellow.any opinions welcome;)

What do you all think?!
