Black grill time?

[BRKLYN1]

Now that we have all painted our rims black. what about the grill, has any one done this yet?

 

[bjowett]

Black grills are tha coolest!

I've been thinking about doing this since mine is pitted and chipped so badly. However, since I have such a dark color I don't think it will look as nice as it would on a lighter colored 80.

KC-- for the darker color you might consider rustoleums hammerite gray or "hammered finish" product. Concretejungle painted his on a green rig flamingo, and it looks pretty good, about a year old and a few chips have returned. Brklyn1 the gray would look great on the blue as well but with the wheels black id say its a toss up; but both beet the stock bling!

cant find a closeup pic but pm cj if you want to take a peek...

I thought the grills were already black, all you had to do was remove the Chromoly finish. Maybe it needs a layer of paint to give it a more finished look?

I refinished mine (including the Toyota logo) in a Gunmetal Gray on my Black Cruiser, I think it looks pretty good. Now has two Chrome OEM Driving lights in front of it too.

I am going to black out the bumper when I do the Dura Back. So a black grill will match then. OH what vanity

OH what vanity

Oh the insanity . . .
Oh the humanity . . .

I painted ALL of the black dash trim pieces with dark grey Hammerite. The interior of my mother-in-law's Sequoia has, what looks like, the light grey Hammerite finish with clear coat. It gave me the idea, since my dash was buggered up with "wood" trim residue.

I wanna do my rims too . . .

Do you have any pics of how your interior turned out? Sounds cool.
