When my body & paint guy offered to paint the grille I didn't know he was going PAINT the grille, pictures can't do it justice, at all.
He sprayed it twice, because the first time exposed marks inside the cells, probably natural, but he wasn't having it, so he sanded everything smooth, hit it again and used the same clear coat he sprayed the body with. It's heavier than once before for sure.
This is near as much his project as mine, couldn't do it without him. I pay him say 50% more than he wants though, on-going
He wanted $200 to finish this grille
It's the same grille I installed new early 90s, seems it was $50-60 at a place called Chevyland. It was better than the NOS acquired over the years, so off to bed. Be a good day when I install it - the truck will have returned from its maiden start, God willing
