Looks cool, what paint did you use for the grille? What kind of prep did you do?

thank you

just washed it with some water really good, dried it off, marked some scruffs on it, sanded it, then primer, then re mark and re sand, primer and then final coat of semi gloss rustoleum for plastic, im leaning further and futher to getting a custom plastidip paint job done locally and doing a satin black and getting the outside of the grille the same color, and doing the inside insert in gunmetal, and using the raptor overlay to customize it.

should look pretty cool, especially with the blacked out headlights.
