So got some time so I did a small project on my grills, basically got some dark slate metallic vinyl and slapped them onto the grill, also covering the top and bottom chrome parts. Tell me what you think

Thanks, I might do the bottom grill too, although it might not be as noticeable.

whoa! they've got a lot of choices on that site. which one did you go with for the Dark Slate? The 3630 Scotchcal™ Translucent Cast 7 Year Film in Slate Grey? Considering vinyl'ing the mustache to match paint color rather than painting.

They definitely have a HUGE selection, did you get the MacTac 8300pro Intermediate Vinyl or something else?

Hi sorry, I actually got the vinyl through their ebay store, which doesnt have that many colors to choose from.

The one I got is http://cgi.ebay.com/15-Black-O...wItem

The color may look like dark slate, but this one does not match Nissan's dark slate exactly (i know because my bro drives a dark slate 3.5coupe)
