i just did my Grill with Gloss black from a good bodyshop cost me $100.
If your in Brooklyn i could hook you up with the guy who did mine.
And it looks amazing.
Dont even bother painting it yourself because after a few washes it will chip and look like crap.
Matte colors are no good and will chip, i painted my grille flat black with 2 primer coats, sanding in between, 3 flat black coats and 2 coats of clear coat. After 3 washes there were chips everywhere. DEF only go with Gloss Black if you paint it
