Chrome grille mod ideas/pictures?

Looking for ideas to mod my chrome TRD sport grille. Ideas and pictures appreciated!

 

I just did this to mine last night, really pleased with it.



Edit: It's Plasti Dip of course.

 

Looks great! How many coats did you do? Did you do a clear coat as well?

 

I like the st grills. I just plasti dipped mine. Left the emblem and bezel chrome.

But if it comes time the plasti dip is peeling off I'll just grab ask sr grill off eBay.

 

It was my first Dip, so I went way light on the badge (did that first). Ended up with 7 coats. The grill and shroud/surround were 5 each. No clear coat. Is there a benefit to a clear coat? does it make the surface less... grippy? Might be worth it when it comes time to clean if so.

 

I'm not sure on the clear coat. I have seen a couple of people post that they have used a clear coat to help protect it from damage/peeling. You have more experience than I do!

 

Plastidip the grill and left the "ring" and emblem chrome. Also added a TRD badge.

 

Dipped mine with a black bezel, smoke center, and chrome emblem

 

Looks really good! Where did you get the TRD badge? I have seen some on ebay but didn't know if there was a better place to pick one up?

 

The smoke center looks awesome, where did you get it?

I got this one off Amazon. It's pretty good quality and as a Prime member I got free shipping.
