Painted Grille surround!!!!

I used the paint can set up from paintscratch.com. The paint matched perfectly, even had the flakes in it. The website had detailed instructions for each application. The only thing I did different was use an adhesion promotor before using their primer. Only other advice I would have is use an air powered spray gun rather than a can because its supposed to make the paint shine more. Mine is close but I'm going to buff it with a rubbing compound this weekend, hopefully that will bring more shine out.

 

Hey buddy how did the paint match? got any pics?

 

Look at my thread about Painting the Grille. GoBlue said a few things that might be helpful. when you re-do your painting

 

Looks close to me, but like I said I think it could use some more shine.

 

Damn man that paint matched up SICKK!!, you have now changed my mind and am going to go with that website! hopefully it matches my super white II good too! Did you put clear coat after?

 

yea I put 2 coats of clear on it

 

Anyone have a link as to where to buy the painted OEM grill online?
The first link, on page 1 is dead...


Good luck on attempt #2 buddy, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
You'll nail it next time.

 

You actually want to spend about $250? I'm sure a local shop can do it for half that.
