i Painted my grills a metallic Bule from Patrica R/C paints its a very close match to the Neptune color.up close top grill-Bottom Grill-Overall-

Nice!

gotta love model paints. nice job!!!

thanks guys i though it truned out realy well. it looks even better in person.

looks good. i did the same thing a fews ago.

Looks really good!

did you clear coat it?? reason i ask is because it looks like you didn't.clear coat would make it look like it's supposed to be there..

I like the bottom grilles, too; they contrast with the cladding in a cool way.Whodathunk that some off-the-shelf model paint would match so closely?Clear coat might be a good idea, though.

ill try the clear coat.

Was it much of a job to "mask oof" the area. I notice that the area behind the grille has no "spray" on it. Did you just put cardboard or whatever behind it???

accutaly you take the grills off the car. and heres how:on the top grills there are 3 clips that look like screws, you need a flat head screwdriver to pop those out. then there are the 2 screws on the bumber you need to remove. after that is done all you have to do is start uncliping the grill there are clips all around the grill top and bottom.with the bottom grill all you have to do is unclip it from the bumper.

I did mine in black it really looks nice a gloss black and not plastic black.looks nice in blue.

thanks
