Default Pics: Paint Project Complete - Front Grilles, Fog Light Housing, Front Fascia

Here are the pics I wasn't able to post in my other thread on my painted bumper, side skirts, and rear decklid panel. You can find that thread here:

https://mustangforums.com/forum/2010...this-time.html

The new pics attached below are of the front fascia (bottom), fog light housings, both front grilles, and side skirts (so you can see how it blends better now since the front is done).

I think it came out pretty good. Let me know watcha think!

Thanks man. I think the paint on the front really tied the whole thing together.

Wow man that looks great, I wasnt really a fan when you painted it yourself, no offense, just didnt look this good. Your whole front end looks really sweet now and Im not usually a fan of hood pins but they go very nicely with the whole look. I must say I think you have inspired me to get a bunch of stuff painted lol. Never even though about doing my fog light deletes, they are so ugly in plastic. I will probably end up getting every but the grills painted on mine. Looks good but just not for me and a black car. My only debate is whether or not I should get all the pieces painted black to match or possible flat black to give it a two tone unique kind of look. What do you think Dave?

Thanks man! If you're going to get black done, I would do the shiny black. I think it would look cleaner. It makes plastic look much LESS like plastic, like in the fog light housings, rear lower bumper, etc..... It'll class that plastic right up in my opinion You could also get a different color black (glossy) but in a slightly different color than the black you have right now, like maybe a black with metallic flakes or something in it. Nothing too "edgy" but something that would stand apart from the rest of the black paint. I think glossy black with metallic flakes for sure. Go for it!

Yea I am leaning towards shiny black, probably just gonna get it painted to match lol. I am getting my gt500 rear the end of this week so that will be my first painted part to put on after it gets done.
