Plasti dip front grille - black on black

Sorry for the blurry phone camera pix. I i was scared it wasn't going to match the glossy hood but the plastic bottom part of the front bumper actually matches it. Gives it a two tone look. I figured if anything I can always pull the plasti dip off. Next up will be the back emblems.

 

That looks awesome!

With all that paper and tape we(like myself) could have showed you to take off the front grill. It only takes a couple of minutes to do. I took mine off when I dipped it too.

 

damn you. i forgot , read from here that theres only two bolts and two plastic fasteners that holds the grille. oh wells

but i was able to take off the front emblem in two seconds

 

Haha! Well I guess if you would have asked then you would have known. I actually think I posted about it when I did it, I don't remember.

I tried to get the front emblem off and I gave up. Taking off the whole grill was easier, well once I did it a few times. The first time there was a lot of swearing that's for sure.

What do you plan on dipping next?

 

rear emblems for sure. tempted to do that shiny rear bumper too but not sure if that will look decent.

 

I'll save you the trouble. The emblems are dirty for being on there 6 months. Just haven't gotten around to re-spraying them.

 

I did my rear bumper on my Barcelona Red, and I think it looks awesome. It didnt take a whole lot of dip to do either.

 

From what I remember, mine wasn't even a can. A $2.00 trigger sprayer did really help though.

 

oooooooooooh very tempting... might be this weekends project

 

It's actually very simple. Just mask everything off properly. I did it in a few hours. I also wasn't paying attention to the time I sprayed between coats. So it did take a bit longer. Doing more than one PD project at a time, I lost track of time.
