i "plasti-dipped" my grill about a year ago and its still almost perfect... plasti-dip is a spray on vinyl you can get from your local home depot or lowes or any other hardware store.. if you like it you can keep it if you dont you can just peel it off and it will be stock again..

i primered and painted mine a few months back in the summer, it looks pretty decent and will hold steady unless you drive fast or in dusty areas where rocks can chip your paint? i have slight chips and fades from the rocks in the mountains

It really is. You can read up all you want about how to please a woman, you can look at all the diagrams in the world, but just like the clitoris, you won't know what the hell an apex is before you actually find it.

It's DIY.

I plasti-dipped the ones on my stock bumper. Held up fine, no chips or anything.

Bought black grills for my lci-conversion though.
