    Similar to what this guy did with his Pro Grille (not mine).

    Looks awesome. If you paid to have it done, how much was it? Factory match paint I assume.

    Sorry man, honest opinion--it looked better before. Too much white up front. I liked the way the black broke it up a bit. Hope that's plastidip.

    Plastidip and then super white paint over the plastidip. Still have the original grill and chrome surround hanging in the garage. Less than a half hour to swap grills - all tabs intact on the original, broke 1 chrome tab installing the new one.

    Trying to get rid of all the chrome - next is the rear bumper caps - most likely black dipped.

    With the white you can see more 'details' than you can with the black - unless you are right on top of it. It is like all the black wheels - you get more than 10 feet away or they are in the shade and you can't tell what kind or style they are.

    psychle - I appreciate your honesty.
