Flat black grille?
#42
i hit a dear a few years back in my NBP---upon repair i had my body guy paint everything but the A flat black...it really came out nice, but then someone hit my car, so i had the guy paint everything to match the car, even the A...i personally think the color matched looks better

going to be doing this on my NBP...just cant decide if i wanna order the vinyl wrap from sticker city, do it flat black, or match the NBP color.
anyone have any thoughts on this? if so, what's the best method for getting the NBP paint? dealer?
thanks in advance.

I had my grill professionally painted NBP a year ago but it chipped all to hell after about 6 months.
I took the paint off and wrapped the whole thing in gloss black vinyl. It looks great, it's more durable, no chips, bubbles or imperfections. Much happier with the vinyl.

Did you just put the vinyl over the chrome? also did you take it off the car to apply it? going to and wanting to do the same to mine! i think its sick looking.

PAZ, have any pics of the detailed areas? did you just cut the vinyl in the seam or is it wrapped around it. I'm curious on how you did that. thanks

No pics, but that was one of the most difficult parts (The curved area around the logo was hard too). I didn't cut the vinyl, just carefully pressed it into the seam. Avoiding bubbles or wrinkles is the challenge.

Thanks. Yes, the vinyl is over the chrome and I took the pieces off the car first. You can probably do it w/o taking the grill parts off, but I thought it would look better/cleaner this way.
