This is the setup I'm going for, just wondering if anyone has tried painting, dipping, wrapping etc.... on their outside grille trim?

Looking for opinions, although the paint job on this is SICK!

I've wrapped mine and painted my old one. Both ways hold up well. It's all in the prep work.

Did you remove the Grille to paint or wrap it?

Yes sir I did... to remove it on a 15+ the whole bumper comes off. It's really not the bad though.

This is my old bumper, I've since replaced it so I don't have that huge scrape.

That looks real good, I have'nt dabbled with wrapping before, plastidip ed and painted my wife's Acura MDX. Is the process difficult or overly time consuming

Sorry for the 21 questions....

It's not really but then again I do it everyday. (how I make a livin) Going with what you just said, if your comfortable with dip I'd go that route.
