Bulldog: from the picture it looks like the color match is not perfect. How does it look in person - is it obvious?

Thanks and nice looking GG.

The paint color is a perfect match....the GG just looks different in different light and angles

That's great to hear, man. I'm getting my new kit this week. I plan to get a HFP bronze wheelset like yours which would look nice with the royal blue that I have.

OMG!What'd you do to my car? J/K. Mine doesn't look like this anymore. I like the wheels. There's a guy out in Jersey with OEMs painted black and it looks sweet. Did you get them powder coated GM? I really like the red H symbol center caps. God I miss San Diego.

riceracr99 · 06-18-2006, 12:22 PM

What process did you use to paint the grill? Did you sand it down prior to painting? What kind pf paint did you ise and how satisfied are you with the result?

I used paint prep cleaner and I used rim paint that is chip resistant.....still not a 100% satisfied with it though.....still thinking about getting it done professionally but that chrome had to go

thanx for the comments, i didn't powdercoat them cause i couldn't find the color i wanted. so i just painted them with the same kind of paint that goes on a car. clearcoat and all. 100% satisfied and unless i hit a curb or something they will not chip/flake off.

It looks good without the chrome. I need to do the same thing. Have you tried to get any quotes on how much it would cost to get it done proffesionally?

Not yet... I would imagine it would be in the $50 to $100 range.....just debating to go with the black or go body color
