Default 92-96(97HD) Grille paint

Well, this has been done for a while now, but I thought I'd post my 'mod.' I can't take credit, I've certainly seen many others who have done this before. To start off with it is very cheap and simple, and the longest part is masking. I'd recommend this to anyone who want set their pickup out from the rest, and especially for those younger who might be considering auto body. If the hour-ish or so masking is too much for you, maybe auto body isn't your thing. In my case I had a weekend with some time to kill. Chances are your 13-18 year old gille might look faded like mine

Tools needed: Phillips screw driver

Supplies needed: Can of paint
Masking tape

Remove the five screws holding the grille on, four along the top and one in the bottom center louver. Then, clean off the whatever parts of the grille you're going to paint.



Start masking!


Read directions on paint can and apply as directed in coats desired.


Let paint dry and remove masking tape.


Install and enjoy! (It's been a while so you can see some bugs on it.)



Step-by-step probably not needed, but I needed captions.
