I have a 03 evo and the paint on my grill and also on the hood vent part is starting to fade and discolor. I was wondering how to repaint it? What to use for paint? Any steps? thanks

 

Prime, then paint. Not an elaborate job. I would use flat black paint.

 

stray paint tho?

 

buuump

 

Yes just use spray paint. For best results I would strip the existing paint, the prime, and repaint.

 

ok thanks man

 

After repainting several times I got sick of it. I then bought some paint stripper in a can at Home Depot. I used it to completely stip the paint on all grills. Then I put clear coat on them to prevent rusting. I have not had any issues since and the car looks amazing. It even matches my silver paint job better.

 

i need to repaint mine too its starting to chip!

 

I used flat black high temp on the louvers and gloss black high temp on the mesh, came out sexy.

 

^yep,

..i sprayed it onto spraybottle cap, then used q-tip to 'brush' it on.

 

well lets see i did mine a while ago sand it down with some sand paper, prime it( jsut like a spray on primer) i did like 2 layers then i bought some hi- tmp caliper paint just incase you know it gets hot in there lol then you gotta do light layers so it doesnt get all blochy i did like 3 layers of that and looks pretty nice id say i have the GG and did mine red to make sumwhat a color scheme to mach the brembos lol

 

simple easy not the koolest thing in the world just wanted to be different
