Does anyone have a pic of a WDP front grill painted except for the Acura symbol. I am looking into this but not too sure how it would come out. I know Ron Jon has a grill similiar to this but without the Acura emblem and I don't believe he's released this grill yet. So, I was thinking of just painting the front grill.

I can't figure out how to post a pic on this site, but I had the top chrome piece of the grille, that is part of the hood, painted to match the color of the car and it looks awesome. My 05 TL is black and it gives it a lowered look. The piece only cost around $45, so if I did not like it, I would not be out much. I also put new Voxx rims on it from Discount Tire and they are also killer. I am getting ready to put the snow tires on though since the summer Michelins are terrible in winter. If you know how to uplaod pix easy, let me know.

? not sure what you are asking to see. I painted my grill body color, and the lower grills gunmetal and silver.




Trancemission had his blacked out.

FADE - thats exactly what im talking about!!! Now if I can only see it in WDP..It does look good on your though so im thinking it won't look bad on a WDP either...and if it doesn't it's just a matter of replacing that front grill. Thanks.

Thanks....Not really feeling it though. There seems to be too much white and no breaks along the lines but thats just my opinion.

I'm not sure if you're even still around and checking out the forums, but that should give you a pretty good idea of what you're asking to see.

I'm not feeling the white either- not enough contrast. Maybe if the "A" was black chromed. That's why NBP rules!

If you're referring to my pics, yes I know what you mean. My car is going in tomorrow and these are being put on:



That ought to meet your (and my) "contrast" needs!


These are also being installed:



Cleared headlights done up nicely by Retrofit-Source.

This all would have been done sooner, but I've been waiting forever and a day to get these chrome trim pieces back to me. The turnaround time was in excess of eight weeks. AGONIZING to say the least.

are those the stock pieces straight off of your ride or did you get new ones? if they are new where did you get them?
reason i ask, is that i would like to color match my grille but i still want to have the original parts incase i ever want to return to stock
