Black Chrome TL-S grill

Has anybody tried using dark grey vinyl (like used for taillight tint) to cover the chrome grille and make it look like black chrome? I think it would look hot, and was wonderingif it's been done before.

I've seen a number of painted grills (White, AM, NBP/Black), but none with vinyl film/overlay. I think it'd be *really* hard to get the contours right - unless you mean just that one top strip that's on the hood.

Maybe I need an eye exam, but the grille and the insert over the license plate on my TL-S look like black chrome.

Yeah, it is *called* Black Chrome, but IMHO it is not nearly dark enough.

Black/Gun Metal chrome on the TL-S has been on my list forever. Just not a priority (yet).
