Hey guys I've been contemplating on painting the front grill of my IS
but have been very scared to have those ugly rock chips on it.
What do you guys used? vinyl, high tempt paint, any spray paint plus clear?
I took mine off, sanded it down, and spray painted with like 5 coats......CHIPS!!!!! ugh...I actually ordered vinyl and should have it tomorrow. Im wrapping if you get the hint. DO NOT PAINT! Its a waste of ur time and personally when it starts to chip, it looks like SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!
I sanded mine down and painted it the first time, then it started chipping and looked like ish', so I repeated the process two months after and it hasn't chipped since.
i painted n left it flat black. it chipped. so i got tired of it chipping and repainted another 2 coats of black and 3 coats of clear. since then no chips! and it looks nice haha
this is before the clear coat. the clear coat will make it look like its wet n shiny all the time! n pretty much eliminates the rock chips. sorry about the blurry phone pic =(
