ok guyz.. so we ALL agreed that the paint match grill did not.. look ... MATCHED.. lol. as it was supposed to be pearl white.. so.. i finnaly got my order in and had some time to finish my ATLP SPORTS GRILL (A). i think it turned out great.. havnt installed it yet.. but i will soon.

so now im waiting for my Silver RPF1'S as i have gold rpf1 right now... so let this continue..

KillerG

looks nice dude. still on my consideration list this thing

tobwac

that grill is growing on me maybe i will add it to my wish list lol

ANGRY_tsx09

Still I wish the price was a little bit lower then it was... The front lip kit was even cheaper. Which is on my wish list now..

ed_423

wow you painted yourself? looks good man

larryt1026

Looks good! Wish I had the 09-10 bumper. I don't think I can do this mod or the front lip mod.

ANGRY_tsx09

ok i finnaly put it on.. and ed i know what you mean about the "GAP" now. lol tell me what yall think..

silver Rims... drop... to be continue...

Looks good and good job on the paint!!! something is off with the silver though it made it look to "plasticky" if that makes any sense..

ANGRY_tsx09

Plastic?? Maybe clear coat I used on it..

MoaarLow

I can kinda see where hes comming from.
I think it looks ok tho. Only other thing i would want to see is
a gloss black, or paintmatched.

I would rock out with it like that for a while tho. that grille is growing on me

TSXKid2010

It looks alrite IMO.
If it was me, i'd chrome that middle bar. The PWP is one of the only colours that actually works with the chrome, so it'll probably look sex...

PyroDave

the gap would kill me. the black space is tooo visible between white and white/silver/chrome

Mr. NC

That silver looks outtaplace imo......

KillerG

So its a huge improvement from stock, but everyone is right, something is off with the color

props to you for painting it, but yeah its off for some reason

I think one of the raisins it might look plasticy is not enough metallic flakes, or possibly not enough clear coat?

I think you should consider experimenting with different colors, because the grill is def nice, and it can certainly give more to your car than it is now.

@the chrome idea, its a good idea, and im very curious to see how the middle would look chromed hoping it looks good, but also, it could go horribly wrong and you could end up with a chrome mustached car

apinwp09GBTSX

Im getting the Atlp grille too and was planning to paint it the same color you just did...but maybe its only in pics and probably looks better in person...but it looks cheap to me...

not trying to offend bro just giving my input

ANGRY_tsx09

Can someone photoshop the chrome for me??

ANGRY_tsx09

Its to dark.. I mite just redo the whole thing chrome...

ssjoeboe9

my vote is black trim, paint matched bar! I think you will be able to pull off a nice look when you get the color right.. Or you could send it off and get it carbon fiber dipped. That would look legit!

ANGRY_tsx09

Guys... What about bar chrome... And carbon fiber vinyl trim.

tobwac

Black grill clear corners and black out roof black lip spoiler= win

KillerG

Yo, so I played with it in photoshop, and the black grille looked really nice

The chrome I cant replicate in photoshop, its too advanced a technique for me, but black looked nice and clear corners would set it off for sure

Go grab a can of plastidip from home demo and itll take you like 20 minutes

ed_423

Man you guys are a tough crowd to please! I think it looks pretty good haha

Good luck on your experiment man

MoaarLow

Pics or it didnt happen!

KillerG

im not your whore!

will have to take my word for it, or i will post work i did in paint

ANGRY_tsx09

IM STARTING TO THINK YALL ARE USING ME AS A GUINEA PIG! Lol.. ill find other ways to make it look in place with out painting it.. maybe a chrome vinyl..

KillerG

no shit.

everyone is everyone else's guinea pig on these boards, only a few people have enough money/bravery to push the boundaries and go balls deep into unknown modding territory

kudos to you guinea pig, ehhh err, i mean sir

kudos to you sir

ANGRY_tsx09

Well thanks

TSXKid2010

For a nice OEM+ look, go chrome middle bar and silver outer frame. The scheme that's on the stock shield grille, since the colours work for PWP. adding black or carbon fiber or something might contrast too much without other accents to accompany it, but that's just my 2 cents

swarlos

I like it. Just wish they could nail down the fitment on these aftermarket grills =/ Nice rpf1s!

ANGRY_tsx09

So I've put my grill in the shop.. I'm repainting it... Hopefully this turns out good!!' ahhhhmm.. This time.

icu2tsx

in for updates.

ANGRY_tsx09

ok.. i finally got my grill done. this is the 4th?? time doing it over. and i think imma keep it this way.

opboarding

Looks great! Does the color match up pretty well with the rest of the car? kind of hard to tell in the picture.

Also looks like you have a little bit of character on the front bumper . I got a little bit myself like a month ago on my front bumper too.

ANGRY_tsx09

yes it match pretty good... but not %100 perfect.. more like %90. pearl white is very hard to match..

ed_423

looking good, more pics???


for anyone who is interested in this grille...I MIGHT BE SELLING MINE SO PM ME

ANGRY_tsx09
