EG front grille.

[I heart the SSS]

Did a search came up with nadda so i'm posting here so I don't get flamed as much ahahah.

The EG front grille, I've seen many people with black ones and was wondering the following :

1) can you remove the stock OEM colour painted one and paint it black?

IF SO...

2) will a supercheap can job surpass or do you need to sand and etc

3) if supercheap cans are out of the option, brush or spray gun?


IF NOT...

4) Can you buy black ones ? (skip the whole DIY part)

Cheers Fellas

I reckon if you give it a quick sand and a good clean then a can of black should be good enough. It doesn't come out, it is part of the bumper.

1-TAKE OFF BUMPER
2-Give it a quick clean + wipe down
3-Some light sanding with sand paper, where the air induction part
4-Sticky tape + Newspaper area's you dont want to paint

5-Give it a 1st light layer spray down, after 15 minutes then a touch up layer
6-leave it to dry for about half an hour 1 hour or Once you think its dry

Black Paint mattblack/glassblack - Purchased at Supercheap/Autobarn

7-Give it the layer of black paint, Do about 2 coats & leave to dry about 5 hours to dry? depends on weather
