how did i do???

dude its just paint, they make thinner n sand paper everyday, sand that shit, paint tape paint til u get it right, and quit asking peoples opinions, they dont count, only ur woman's opinion counts, wut did she say about it?

 

Someone should get on this, that's sticky worthy.

 

dang I wanted to do this to mine chrome to silver streak or black but this one does'nt really help me much...it looks white to me not silver ???? Don't worry you can redo it all again just take it out of the truck good luck and I hope it turns out for ya

 

i took the grill of before painting...

 

Trial & error. You learn as you go. looking forward to see what you do next...

 

Wow dude. Redo that stat!

 

haha

 

since i'm getting it professionally done should i do it black or white?

 

Paint the surround white, get a mesh grill inserted and keep that black.

 

check my build i painted mine (well had it professionally done)
black

white for sure looks really good

 

White.

 

I had mine professionally done too

 

Sorry to see this dude but dont get dishartend i have screwed up many times and that how i grew the ball to do a satoshi and a BHLM that many people are scared to perform ... let me give you a word of advice its good to risk and try things but dont alway go all out always take precaucions like taping the corners and all anyways my personal sugestion buy a new grill you can get one for about 40 dollars from these people certifit.com get that professionaly painted from someone meanwhile you can sell this one for ebay or practice satoshi on it..... unless you ar confident that you can fix this a proffessional body shop might give you a hard time fixing it or they might charge you a lil extra for cleaning your mess your call IMO get a new grill get it done and practice satishi on this one .... GOOD luck and once again dont dtop trying this is how you learn and will always learn this will give you sourage to do more....

 

Be nice

 

IMO, go with white.

 

do you think a paint shop can do a mesh grill? who should i go to?

 

print out the satoshi mod pics. Buy some good grill material. Take it to a body shop and get an estimate for how much to do "this". Thats it. Alot of you guys need to cut him some slack - painting is a real bitch especially when its your first time. Fact is 90% of the members here can't paint for shit unless its a black paint mod

 

I screwed up one of my eyelids..looks like crap but it'll have to do until I can get new ones (and those'll come pre-painted!) but yes.. my own fault indeed - but live and learn I say!
