What Color to Paint?

[Shipkiller]

While my front bumper cover is off to the painters, I have the lower grill in the garage.

Now that it is really been cleaned, I was wondering:

1. Should I paint it?
2. If so, what color?

It is black.

If I paint it, should it be:

Flat black....subdued look.
Glossy Black
Slightly Silver. For contrast on a Black car.
Or
Red, like a big red smile..... (In tribute to Rick's Red ///M)

A nice shade of mauve.

Nahhhhh Chartreuse all the way

How about a neon Chartreuse for the chrome surrounds and mauve for the vertical grill work.

Aww, shucks... You just made my day!

And yup... I still haven't found a way to wipe that grin off my face. I've had my Zed for over 15 months now!

My vote's for flat black.

Well in many photos and tests involving various mesh parts ont he front all in tsilver the overwhelming opiion was 'don't do it'. Some images were photoshopped to black and some considered those better. Tend to agree as the headlights and kidney are the feature not the lower grille

Leave it matt black

Paint it glossy red, like in a womans lipstick, and paint little black eyelashes above the headlights :kiss:
