painting grill

Has anyone tried to paint the 2 black horizontal inserts that are in the grill? I've been to 2 diff body shops and one said that the paint wouldn't stick the other said it could be done without a problem. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

 

Yes you can do it. Use radiator paint so as not to affect the heat properties of the radiator.

 

i used rustoleum from home depot to paint mine

 

Any pics

 

Here are pics after getting the grill painted, adding devil horns, eyelids and a TRD Sport decal to the hood scoop.

 

ohhhhhh I like!!!

 

did you paint the surrounding of the grill also? that came out good, i plan on painting my chrome.

 

The whole thing is painted except the "triangle" cut-outs next to the headlights. Those weren't painted because it's basically impossible to prep them for painting.

 

I like it, good work. Did you do it, or did the shop?

 

I had a body shop paint the grill and the eye lids at the same time so the color would match.
