been thinking about color matching my grill and then either color matching or plastidipping my front and rear bumpers. then maybe get around to painting my undercarriage. i know all shops are different but what do yall think the price would be about for color matching just the grill?
any other opinions are appreciated!

thanks
-Nick

I can get whatever you want painted. :D

Grills are kinda fun, as yours is chrome, it would need to be stripped. It would be easier to buy a certifit grill to work off of (no chrome!). I can check with my painter on pricing, but I'd say that it would probably be around $175ish on PS2 silver.

ive heard about painting the chrome. i hear it is a real pita. might be a coll project though, never painted why not learn! lol. i havnt really driven it since my sister went to college. took her ride! puttin miles on that.

175 was really a lot cheaper then i was expecting though.

mostly sanding, and sanding, and sanding. prep work is 90% of a paint job

and ya 175 sounds like a good deal!

Well, thats for the paint, still need a grill and shipping. :D

i actually found a grill, a headlight set, and a 3rd brake light on craigslist for $100 today. gonna wait for a email back, got a couple mods i wanna do and just so happens they involve all three of those. so im hopping it isnt broke or sold already.
