Paint front grille

[EldRitch]

Just musing that a fake front radiator grille on an electric car seems pretty silly.

Has anyone considered painting the grilles in body color? Here's a (mediocre) visualization...

People have done them in PlastiDip

I've used PlastiDip before - the dip-it-in version sticks well and is tough after it dries, but the spray-on does not stick nearly as well, and it's so soft that you can take a hunk out of it with a fingernail.

You might have a look in the gas Spark forum, there are lots of modders there. Would give you an idea of what people have been doing.

If there is a decent ICE Spark forum, I couldn't find it.

I plastidipped the from grill and the front and rear Chevy emblems. Looks good.

Body color, or black?
