yeh i got it all off, i had to scrape it off with a knife. Now all i gotta do is sand and paint...............again. lol

 

oh man, you SCRAPED the chrome off? i bet that took quite some time. the only time i ended up scraping mine was when i put the wrong paint on and i was removing it. when i painted it right all i did was throw on 2-3 coats of primer and then 3 coats of base followed by 2 coats of clearcoat.

 

yeh well "I" didnt scrape it off. My room-mate who doesnt have anything else better to do scrapped it off for me. lol.

i got the mesh all cut out to shape though, so im gonna give the grill 2 coats of primer, a coat of black. i already gave the mesh a coat of primer and black.

so then i stick the mesh on with my 2part epoxy, and give it all one final black coat.
Im using low-gloss black engine paint.
I will upload photos when i get done.

 

make sure you don't use the engine paint that has ceramic in it, i used that the first time and it ended up giving the grill a nasty texture. definitely not ribbed for her pleasure.

 

yeh it has ceramic in it. but it looks good on my brakes and wheel caps. It has a nice smooth finish

 

So how did it come out?? pics or are we going to have to meet up for me to see it?

 

it came out good. im gonna upload pics soon. this weekedn im touching up all the scratches, and waxing the car. Then i will up some pics

 

I have a stock grill for sale. $25 + Shipping. This would be great for the guys who want to take there time painting the grill and still be able to drive around with the stock until the painted one is done.
