Plastidip Grill?


Recommended Posts

Tough call man, IMO black wheels work well with color matched bumpers. With chrome bumpers, looks too busy...again IMO.

 

Before you paint your grill try popping the grill inserts out, without them there's only a tiny bit of chrome.

Did you remove the inserts to plastidip? Looks great.

I vote for plastidip on the mesh inserts. I did that on my 15 LTZ and it looked good. I did mine the hard way--removed the grille, then the inserts and shot them with 4-5 coats. 2+ years later and it still looked good.

I did the chrome around the grill. Im

happy with it. Might re do it but it helped the look of the truck a lot. If I get my truck re painted ever I’ll have the bumpers done.

I REALLY HATE PHOTO UPLOADER ON THIS FORUM. My pics are always sideways 

I have to save them on my computer, edit them by rotating away from upright and back to upright (sometimes 360º rotation), before uploading them.  But, yeah, it sucks.
