hahah you beat me too it

I'll post my pix tonight

I find the wiper grill to be a great idea when you have a
black grill - bumper - roof

Is your wiper grill painted or vinyl?

Do you have one with your new changes and the black roof ?
for a general view


Great looking car

Wow did everyone just have the same idea?

I just received my gloss black vinyl roll to just do the grille excluding the emblem which I'm going to leave chrome...


Looks great though man!

It's not hard but be careful not to break the clips holding the grille in. I broke a couple but wasn't too concerned because I bought an extra grille for that purpose. I could take a pic of the old grille if you need to see exactly how it clips in. If you paint it while on the car, there is a sensor in the middle that you would have to cover.
