Default Plastidip bug got me.

So I have seen all the plastidip threads and they got me intrigued. I have been thinking about blacking out my billet grilles since I put new wheels on, so I stopped by Lowes on the way home from work yesterday and bought two cans. I will most likely pull these off and hit them again, but the result was pretty damn good. I am going to leave it this way for a while before I decide whether to black out the PP grill and emblem. Tell me what you think.

I like the way it looked originally better but looks cool either way.

Looks much better in black. It makes the pony corral stand out. Good job!

Looks good. Doesn't look as flat as I thought it would. A lot cheaper than $110 for a new layover from American Muscle.
