I used this on my grill too. It looks great on your car bro. There is also a plasti dip glossifier u can use if u get tired of the flat black.
I'm not too worried about that...it's probably the ac condenser that's there but majority of the paint is on the grill. It's got these upward curves that catches most of the paint. I had to actually shoot almost straight down to get the top of the grill slats.

At least its reversible. I think the stock set up flows a bit better with your car

The grill is super easy to remove.... I don't have the guts to paint it myself though. I love the blacked out grill with chrome L

Wow, I never know that stuff peeled right off. Ive been looking for a way to see how black wheels would look on my car and I think thats it. Going to be trying that soon.
Also, why are your rear windows tinted and not the fronts?

Because it's illegal to have the fronts tinted in California. Now I could have had it done but I really don't want or need the hassle.

I like it better with the chrome L......all blacked out with the chrome surround makes it look like it's missing something
I think if the car was black, the all blacked out would look better, but on the silver it seems out of place IMO.......
