Author Topic: Anyone paint the front SS grill leadfoot 1st Gear Member # 695 posted                    Im thinking about painting it Red to match the car. I was wondering if anyone has done it so I can see what it looks like. -------------------- Red 2002 SS # 320 Posts: 248 | From: Montgomery Village,MD | Registered: Aug 2000  |  IP: Logged 2002Z4CSS "Post"er Child Member # 1393 posted                    I have not painted a stock Camaro grill before but since it is made from a type of plastic, seems that with the proper prep and plastic primer,it could be painted.The thing I would not like is the possible rock chips you may get. Maybe get a used one and practice on it.

It came out really nice. In fact, a lot of people thought it was a factory piece because I was able to give it a texture instead of just a smooth finish. I did get a couple of chips in it. The cool part is that you can always repair or repaint pretty easily. The grille was replaced by the SLP grille. I still have it in the garage though. ------------- Mark Posts: 942 | From: Santa Barbara and Ventura, CA | Registered: Feb 2000  |  IP: Logged
