Did anyone paint their grille?

So I found some w212 grilles online for about 100usd. Could you scuff off the chrome and/or paint over it? If any of you guys did, I would appreciate any info in doing so. Thanks!

I had mine painted thrice! (E class)
the guys took it apart and painted it.....when it did chip, as I knew it would, I used a sharpie to fill in the spots.......
I have a star grill you could have for 100usd........are you outside of the US?




edit: not sure if it would fit a 2012.....

No but close to it, 58501 post a pic or pm me the grille. And that's one thing I'd hate to do!^^ Keep uninstalling and reinstalling the grille as it chips.
