    I refinished my headlights and cleared them a few days ago. While doing so i noticed my grille that was painted before was chipping and falling off, so i decided to repaint it.
    I had a duplicolor mirage kit sitting around, so i painted it with that stuff.

    What do you guys think about it?

    Closeups, forgive how crappy they are, my point and shoot is terrible. They look mostly blue, you have to have the flask go off to see it well, and when you look at it with the light it shows up blue, against the light, gold

    Not sure I'm that into it... but it probably looks better in person anyway.

    i'm not a fan of the chameleon paint but with that small of peice it doesn't look to bad... i think i'd have to see it in person to be sure... but it looks like its kind of subtle, which that paint usually isn't

    good job though on being original

    I appreciate the work, but I'm not a fan of the paint used.

    Not bad at all. With that color it might be a really nice accent. Can't wait to see it with sunlight in person.

    I know the paint usually isn't subtle, but i figured this was the best chance for it to be. I dont think it turned out too bad, it does look much better in the sunlight.


    I have another thread with a couple more pictures of the headlights,
