I'm waiting for more grills to some out so I can find one that I really like. In the mean time I painted my stock one all black. What do you guys think? Should I go back to the original one?

That looks great. What was the process you used? What kind of paint?

This is what I used but I guess you can use a different type of paint that's not vinyl and fabric but that's what I had and it worked.

You mean you left the mustache chrome, the burger is the Nissan emblem

Hey, when you painted your grill did you just spray over the chrome or did you sand it first? I wanna do it but not exactly sure what the steps are.
