Nice work, it make your GS look more aggressive and cleaner.

I had the same chrome(no emblem) grille and after a few months it got a lil' boring too. Then I settled for the diy chrome grille.

Just blinged my silver milenium grill. I don't like it...wished I kept it stock. The G2 paint are really glossy and probably really resitant to chipping too..just in case someone want's to go black. I can't do glossy black with my silver gs.

oh well...I'll bling for a while.

Just in case anyone wanna bling..here's how to make it easy. Use a toothbrush...the hard one. Spray the thinner and leave for 15 minutes and brush while the thinner is on. Wear gloves and eye wear protection.

Brush in the -x/-y direction i.e... -1/2 slope. The bling is starting to grow on me..I guess silver matchs well with bling.
