i did on my 4th gen with no issues. Clean it well before you start and Just mask off where you don't want PD to go. Use enough to get a nice even thick coat.

Cool thanks guys. I'm trying to get rid of the chrome. I've looked for a black billet grille with no luck. I've found lay over grilled but that's not what i want. I'm gonna try to dip mine.

mine is a 4th gen but I also have a sport, so I thought I'd throw a pic to show some contrast...

You could also get your original grille powder coated, might be a bit more costly though. Mine was done that way and I'm very satisfied with the way it turned out, but I had never heard of plasti dipp when I first did my grille, otherwise I probably would have done that instead.

I'll look at lowes. They didn't have the spray kind at home depot. May have to order it

Wow - never thought you can powder coat the oem shell since i assumed it was plastic. Good to know.

My grille is an aftermarket one, not the original stocker. It was chrome when I got it and then had it powder coated black.
