    As the title states 2015 MGM grill. $125 shipped. Before you get to excited this was a base grill that I painted. I put two coats of MGM on it and followed by three coats of clear. Finished it of with wet sanding and then rubbing compound wax. With that said it's not a perfect factory grill.

    The paint is a perfect match out of the sunlight. In the sunlight you can see it has a tad too much metal flake making it shinier then the hood. Check out the pics.

    The first two pics are overcast so the paint looks perfect. The third pic you can see its got to much metal flake.

    Thanks @crazyjoker. I spent a good 8 hours working on it. I did all that and then decided...ehhh I want to do a black Satoshi with lights behind it. I'm so indecisive.
