    Yes I have my grill painted black


    Basicly you used a regular car paint. But make sure you sand paper to get rid of the chrome, and then primer it and paint it.

    I've also painted mine black. $3 spray paint from Walmart. No sanding, no prepping, no nothing.



    Silver looks nice too!

    aww man, i was thinking about blacking out my grille, but i think i might not anymore. if i do, then that will be one too many blacked out c36's in san francisco. maybe it will be okay after pnsji puts on his blacked out rims.

    hey pnsji, drop me an email. id love to meet up and check out your car in person to see what the blacked out grille looks like.
