Painted Grill

[Baby John]

Has anyone painted a Chrome Grill? Pictures?

I saw a couple hazy pictures on the net but figured you guys might have better pics.

My grill has got a few dings in it. Nothing real bad but even the smallest ding makes the grill look rough....at least to me.

I was thinking since I probably aint gonna spend the cash to buy a replacement chrome grille, that I might could just have the body shop straighten up the dings, and even possibly bondo them and then paint the grille the body color when I have it repainted.

Good idea? Bad idea?

Here's a front shot.

Notice how the top trim piece doesn't line up with the rest of the grille?
