Photoshop request - Black grill
Hi all
can anybody please photoshop the kidney grill from my car: http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/att...0&d=1497865693 I'd like to see how it'd look like with either M-sport grill or M5-sport grill (double slat).. both are high-gloss black. PS: I already blacked out (painted in matt plastdip) the vertical grill parts a few months ago (it's an hybrid one which came with silver/white grill) |

Looks great!
Does anyone have experience in spray painting the chrome grill with the Black Plasti Dip paint? I am trying to find out the cheapest valid alternative to replacing the kidney grills with new ones as I read that it is not easy to take them down and put them back. Thanks! |

 In my case the grill was satin silver (it's an hybrid edrive) and I plasti dipped it with black paint. I didn't bother removing the grill and just taped everything nicely and sprayed it while still on the car. After a year still shows like new I could also now try to plasti dip the remaining chrome surroundings but I think it would show nicer if it would be high gloss black instead of matt black from plasti dip. |

Update: I ordered (non OEM) double slat high gloss M-performance kidney grill and installed it in a few minutes (yanked out the original ones, didn't care about breaking clips) and so happy with the result:
