the only problem with spray painting them (or professionally painted over Chrome), is when it start chipping from rocks on the road, it looks ugly.. and it needs to be painted over and over again. thats why i wanted them powdercoated...

MisterBojangles is infamous around these parts

Are there cheap alternatives to these grills? I don't want to plastidip it and then it becomes a pain in the rump to remove from the small crevices

Came out good you can't tell I plastidipped them

Rednosect - can you please share any tips on getting best results? I am considering plasti-dipping all the chrome bits on the car to gloss black, just like I had on my Supersports.

Is this what I should buy?

Any other suggestions?

Did you remove the stuff from the car before dipping it?
