Default Roush 9 Bar Billet Grille (w/pics)

Well guys, I bought this grille a while ago, and I had it on for a while, took it off, put it back on again. I purchased this grille before the 2008 Bullitts came out. Since I am going for a more OEM style look, I bought one of the Bullitt grilles from Stangmods.com last week and it should arrive sometime next week. The only problem is that with both of these grilles the upper part of the car frame shows through the grilles, although the Bullitt grille not so much (see pictures below). Should I get a can of spray paint and just carefully paint it black, or is there something else that would work better? Thanks for the advice/help in advance.







^ We have some bugs here in Florida!

Most people just spray it black. What are you going to do with that grill with the bullet one arrives?

Sell it. I was talking to another guy on the forum about it. I told him to PM a price, but he hasn't yet. I'm not looking for all that much for it. It retails for $300, but it is used so I'm thinking of something much lower than that. PM me with what you think is fair. When I get the new one in, I'll use that box for shipping the Roush one out.

the bullitt grille will look 10 times better. That part to the rad. support that shows through, i sprayed black. Took me 5 mins with quick drying paint. The support member blends in perfect now. its well worth the 5 bucks for a can of paint, and 5 minutes of your time.

I still plan to get the wheels. I bought the grille before I knew about the paycheck thing.

I think I am going to paint the support member. It looks so good loaded6shooter and mlcrycc!!!

Good, those wheels are going to look sick especially with your car color.
Do they make a large bar grillle for the lower portion too?
