Re: painting front grille and side window grill to black..

Hi,

most of them replace the window trims and paint the front grill.

Alternatively, I have seen one ride whose trims were taped up in black, very well done and looks like it was painted, cost much less than changing and spraying,

of course with the added flexibility of reverting to Chrome when desired.

Cheers.

for grills, if you choose to respray them, can go to yew lip. the other way is to replace with a black-out grill. u can get them thru Wilman, call him at 9690 5511.

as for taping of chrome trims, call eric at 9274 0929.
