Pic Request: 02/03 painted grill
I have a couple of requests regarding the grill actually.
to start i have an 02 abp tl-s
I'm probably going to be getting my front bumper repainted soon along with the hood because a few really small rock chips have turned to rust. so i was thinking about doing the grill either
a. like the aspec grill and painting the chrome surrounding the grill the body color, but leaving the chrome piece that goes along the center chrome (no need for a pic as i know what the aspec looks like)
b. same thing as a. except getting the chrome piece along the center painted abp as well, but only leaving the A chrome
(i would like to see a picture of this if anyone has done it)
on top of that i was wondering what to do with the inner surrounding of the grill that is that grayish color. mine is a little chipped up and i was wondering if anybody had pics of it either painted body color, or black because i was considering doing that.
suggestions, photos to add, anything would be helpful. thanks.

ABP is the greatest. 
I had the chrome trim and the inner black plastic painted. Painting the black plastic gives the illusion of shrinking our fairly large grille opening.

wow looks great guys. youve helped me quickly reach a decision. im definitely going to paint the chrome trim and the inner part of the grill blue. glad the ABP'ers stepped up right away too
one last request, has anybody gone body color (aside from nbp) on the B pillars? i would like to see pics of that if possible
hey wside... do you clear and black out headlights yourself?? you think you could hook mine up? (of course i'd toss you some $$ for your efforts)

InspireUA5: That pic was taken at The Cherohala Skyway in TN, after Pure Adrenaline and I finished driving thru The Tail of the Dragon. Very nice place for scenery... and J32A2 screamery!
wside09: Clean front end. Mine is all pitted to hell. You can see I need to repaint my fog light trim.
