Actually custom front grille

[silvereagle07]

I say keep it and spray it black chrome. It wouldn't much work. The factory grilles look better to me than the reproduction grilles. What kind of paint are you going to use?

I used this base coat/clear coat 2 can kit from Duplicolor. If the solvents in the paint had not have wrinkled the plastic on the grille it would have looked better. But atleast it matches the truck still by looking good yet used.

Did you use a prep solvent to clean all the contaminents from the grille? I have done that before and it wrinkled on the parts I didn't clean properly. I think it turned out great. I'd rock it! I may try the Duplicolor this weekend on some chrome pieces I have.
