post your dipped grill
I'm thinking of dipping the beak/ plenum shield part of the grill but I don't want it to look like a moustache on the car lol. Anyone got pix to share of dipped grill ideas ?

I personally would paint it so it looks more OEM. Just my $.02. What year is your RDX?

I got my grill painted for my 2014 TL last week. Homie hook up was $20 for paint and clear. Also had another homie apply a clear bra to the center shield to protect the paint from rock chips. No charge. Cost me $20 total. Could of been free but I insisted on giving him something for the paint.
I still haven't installed it back on the TL yet so I could let the clear bra fully settle. Wife is debating on getting her 2016 shield painted now. Her's is WDP. If and when I get her's done. I'll post pictures in here and my build thread.

Here's mine. Six coats of matte black Plasti Dip and three coats of glossifier. Used Armor All for cleaning after the Plasti Dip cured. It also gets rid of the residual stickiness. I elected to remove the beak for spraying since it's pretty simple and eliminated all the masking.

Hey guys,
I know old thread but just wanted to share.

I'll take more pics next time. I wanna add a finer aluminum grill behind the black Acura grill to prevent stone chips into the radiator.

Recently acquired a cherry 2014 RDX, but much like you guys absolutley hate the beak. I have purchased the matte carbon fiber wrap and getting ready to dive off into that project. I still cant believe no one is selling an after-market grill assembly for a now 6-7 yr old car
