That looks very good. I like how you chrome just the outline of the grille, and left the inner slabs untouched

I just took out the grill and first painted it black. After that I taped off the outside edge, making sure to get it straight. Once That Was finished I sprayed a few coats of Chrome spray paint. It was actually really simple and came out looking pretty good. Let me know if you want to know more about the making of it.
