Front grille paint cost.

I am thinking of getting my front grille painted matte black, any ball park figures about how much this should cost?

No more than 100$.. But if u want temporary paint, u can use plasti-dip.. Less than 20$.

I'd vinyl wrap the grill to protect it from chips

Don't paint it....wrap it. It will last much longer. Should be about $100-$125. Then wrap the door and trunk trim yourself. Plastidip works great on the emblems if you will to black them out too.

Wrap it or plasti-dip as others have said.

If you paint it, be prepared to paint it every year because of road debris.

I would plasti dip. its really easy to do DIY and its a small area so it doesnt look bad. for 8 bucks its good enough hahhaa.

it does have a bit of a weird texture compared to wrap up close, but most people will not be able to tell.

I did my grill with plasti dip, as well as the rear chrome trim.
