On the inner grille I used the same paint as I did on the wheels and hubcaps. It is designed for wheels so hopefully a little chip resistant.

I bought a grille hardware kit to replace all the rusty screws and clips. Putting the plastis clips back in to attach the inner grille to the outer was absolutely frustrating. Ultimately I used a dremel to shave down the insert piece and then used a scrap piece of wood to push it into the holes of the outer grille. It took way too long, and way too much effort, to get those in.
