Wow! looks really good, makes me want a newer foci
 
Looks good.

1.
How do you remove the inner part of the grille ?

2.
Did you spray any primer/adhesive promoter prior to painting ?

3.
What color black(flat or glossy) did you use ?

4.
Did you spray any clear coat protectant after painting ?
 
looks really cool. i think i might do this. but in all black. my car is silver.

i hate seeing that huge hunk of chrome at the front of my car and litterally nothing else on my car is chrome at all.

the inner part of the grille was a pain in the ass...
very carefully, without breaking anything you have to squeeze about 12 clips out off thier nice little home.
2.
after I scuffed the chrome down until it was dull i sprayed adheasion promoter, then an epoxy primer, paint, then clear.
3.
i never touched the inner mesh, i just left it the way it came.
4.
anwered in part 2
 
That looks amazing!!!! Seriously, they def should come color matched from factory. (But of course, that would cost more than having just chrome)

Awesome awesome. The chrome grills are weird. [thumb][thumb]
