Need an opion on my grill color...

[zlim305]

I was going to start customizing my altima by painting the grill first. My question is, since I have the stock grill, would painting the middle and the top/bottom stainless steel lines turn out to have a different look because of the material? or would it still look the same?

I wanted a shiny black look, so I was wondering if I had to buy the "INSERT OVERLAY" before I painted it...

would look the same. paint the whole grille with the same paint, and don't forget a clearcoat. if you want to be safe, you can purchase some black primer paint and coat it with that first. I just bought a can of 10oz at strauss discount auto for $3 the other day.

I just used Duplicolor spray paint stuffFirst you wash itthen you apply an adhesive promoterNext the black paintand last the clear coat.

These pics aren't the greatest at showing the grill, but it's gloss black. It doesn't clash with the lower grill at all...http://forums.altimas.org/zero...ieces

No, super black. Your grille looks great the way you did it.

what do you guys think of the black grill on a radiant silver altima.

I think it will look pretty decent.

Also if you had some more black-ed out themed items it would probably look even better

maybe some GTR style headlight and tail overlays, roof overlay, rear valence, etc. to complete the look
