painting my grill?
 

have any of you ever done this before? i was thinking of painting my grill silver, to match the color of my car. what do you guys think? or maybe i should do something like red? think it would look good. give me your opinions :D

Paint it yellow, thats good for like 10hp I think.

ah yes, yellow = fast. forgot that. i just wanted to paint my lower grill, the big one silver to match. i just dont know how its gonna look

thought about that too,
it will look cheesy with the matching colors
and that part of the car doesnt need anymore attention to it

paint it a nice black it will give your car a more aggressive look
rather than a soft look with matching grills

yea, it'll probibly look alot better if i go from the dull black look of plastic to a gloss black of spray paint?

gloss black i think would look nice ;)

yup gloss black
cuz if you decide to match your lower bumper
youre gonna end up needing to match the upper bumper,
then the moulding beside it
then around the car
and then, well you know what i mean

Black is good, blue goes with silver good to. I'd probably go black, blue will stand out more.

Try paint shop pro. I think you can change colors that way and see what you like. Who knows, you might just like purple and gold..........who knows!


Russ

now why would you advice that
thats like pushing him off a cliff lol

if i painted it either of those colors.. trust me, id jump off the cliff. :)

that gave me a good chuckle

On my n/a both grills and all the belt trim or whatever its called, I painted it all flat black primer. It came out nice. It kinda stands out in these pictures.

Hmmm
 

Lol...I am still laughing about the cliff thing...lol!

I was going to say you might as well just tell him to redo his interrior in Bright Yellow Leather.....cause if that other little piece gave you 10HP...hell YELLOW leather should be good for another 130 at least!

But more seriously here, I have to ask Isphius something...what is with the welded on pipe off of your muffler? Looks like the thing stick out a good 6 inches at least!

Haha, Thats my dads handy work. He didnt feel like cutting it. And the muffler was kinda far in, So he was like SAEGHSGH IT NEEDS AN EXTENSION! And i wasnt gonna argue with him. I was gona cut it and put a shiny tip on (the small kind), But i just sold my car instead

my old man does the same shit

you know he bad luck to me
everytime he comes around when im working on sumthing
im bound to fuck up
and sumthing is horribly gonna go wrong

that why everytime he comes over when im doing sumthing
i jus stop and walk away

lol. Maybe its just you. J/K. My dad does know his shit but his head is stuck in 1980. Lol. He knows every little thing about every chevy ever made, And hates ford with a passion. He HATES that I have 2 toyotas. And he hates even more that I can beat him in them. Even though my first car was a monte carlo that I built and dropped a 300hp small block into... And then an 86 s10 with a 3.4 dohc v6 and a 5 speed...and then a 91 buick regal, And then an olds cutlass, Im still a "rice burner" to him lol.

Ignorance is bliss, I suppose.

no im serious, he's fuckin bad luck to me

he used to work on cars b4,
have u seen the engine compartment of an old bettle,
there was no space but they managed to put an a/c on it
that was remarkable back then( in the freakin 80's)

i think he was a hippie to in the 70's
i saw old pics if him
