color match grille: Why no green???
The color match grille is available in every color but shadow green??
WTF?
I know just line-x it... but I live in BFE and would have to drive over an hour to find someone to do it, then I would have to match everything else to the line-x, e.g. hood vents, brush guard etc.
Can the chrome grille be painted professionally? will a new finish work on that material? that would have to be less than $400, the cost of a new grille.

You can't paint chrome; unless you sand it rough

There goes your cost

Yeah WTFO -- that is strange. An auto body shop can get the discontinued color for you. Getting a body shop to get it for you to do it yourself will prob take a bit more effort. If you decide to do it yourself, there is another recent post, here in the H3 section, that I put on about painting chrome. The bumper could be removed (without affecting the driving of the vehicle too adversely) allowing you to work on it, take it to a shop, or UPS it off to a shop.
Here are some of the colored grilles ... minus shadow green.
Good luck with your project. |
