Ok, this is crazy!!! I bought 2 chrome grills on Fleabay. Chrome underneath... Why? Do other models have same chroming ability? I have a GX470 and RX300.
Regarding the 'two little pieces on each side', do the 2001+ grills have this??
Those weird little pieces are one of the reasons i'm not going all out and chroming the entire grill, side of ribs and all.
Also, can someone confirm that 2001+ grills can also be chromed using acetone/paint remover? I never knew this was a possibility and would love to see pics if anyone has them!

Thank you 2savvy for the information, I first did the front of the grill and it looked good, but it bothered me when i looked really close, it did not look that clean, so I got back on it and spent some more time getting the black paint off of the sides of the slats aswell, (by the way I used Jasco paint remover) it looks much cleaner and nicer to me now, I will post some pics when I get a chance, I like the look and thank you for the information..
