Painted grille surround for a lease?
Think i'll get dinged when i return the car? its a starfire 2010. dont want to plasti-dip an 09+ grille...any temporary options? maybe wrap the chrome part in a matching vinyl?

vinyl I vinyled mine gloss black and nobody could tell the difference. Plus, i had minimal chipping/wear and I drive freeways 90% of the time ^_^
And it's being removed today, because I'm trading in my car tomorrow I'd say vinyl is the best bet-- easily removed and no harm done!

^^ Oohh....good question.... not sure about the paint matching. If you want it to be an exact match, then you'd probably have to just paint it....
The vinyl on mine is Oracal, they may have a color that's close...but..doubt it would be exact...

think i would go with a vinyl, if anything. painting is too much of a hassle for the lease.
if i cant find an exact starfire vinyl on aerotect, or the likes, then ill just see what my tint shop says when i go in for tinting next week. going to have them install redouts and fog vinyls too.

If I have some extra plast-dip, then ill do the grille surround for kicks. Have a strong feeling that I will not like it. 09+ grilles plasti-dipped on non-black cars doesn't look too clean.
