Default Black Pony Part 2

well a couple of weeks ago I painted my pony emblem black:



well the yellow showing through was pretty distracting so.... I painted it too! LOL!

Sweet! How'd you get behind the grill to paint it?

Thanks guys!

I popped the radiator cover, pulled the two bolts out by the headlights and then leanded the grille foward... then taped and covered things... Didn't take long at all... Would have been easier if I could have easily figured out how the stupid tab on the grille worked! LOL!

Been thinking about doing the exact same thing. What kind of paint did you use?

i think lester has a point scrming. IMO it would balance out the car more and give it more contrast (painting the pony yellow, i mean). just my opinion, thats all.

and the answer to your little tab question is this: they are snapped into place. you can simply apply a little bit of pressure (on the tabs) and the grille will simply pop out. i had to take off my whole bumper and grille to make my mesh grille and set my center mounted angel eyes in there.

hey man the pics didn't come out that good so i tryed editing them by adjusting the brightness and the contrast but it didn't work to good. i'll just take more pics in the morning and repost them.
