[Lloyd21]

hey guys I'm wanting some opinions on painting my front end. i have a white truck that im doin a storm trooper/blackout theme on. my grille is chrome, however the rest is all ptm white. im wondering what yall think bout painting the grille, bumper and bottom valance black. Not the outskirt of the bottom just the center if you understand. oh by the way its a 08 so i guess they callin it the nnbs. thanks for opinion and what not.

second part is say i do paint it wahat do i do? just tape it off and brilo it down then add primer and paint?? never done painting before. I'm also gonna ptm some off the interior plastic blue same question applies. thanks guys

Eh, I can't figure it out either (image location won't copy right), but I see what you're on about.

Personally, I'd leave it chrome. Even Stormtroopers had a little metallic on them.

Just some advise if your painting anything plastic or vinyl. make sure that you add a flex additive to the paint otherwise it will flake off. and when doing the interior you need to scuff up the panels good, and spray first with a binding coat usually the binder(etcher) will be clear.
