Did you just paint it Trent? I'd like to do mine color matched with a black bowtie.
I'd need to 3M tape it for rock chips though....

Thanks trent looks good. I wonder how it would look with the bumper black and leave the grill chrome? How did you prep it so that the paint would stick?

Mine started out chrome , I sanded and used plastic type paint and primer and other than rock chips its held up fine . The tire Are Toyo Proxes Larry I cant imagine they would ever hook your 2wd , I hated them for the strip . On a well prepped track they were decent but in 4wd at my home track i never got better than high 1.7's and a whole lot of 1.8's stick with your slicks Larry .

my grill was a chrome grill orginally i just scored the underneith of the bar and was able to get it to peal so i wont have to deal with chipping later. you can see what i mean byt he pealing here. blow dryer and utility knife was all i needed.

I too hit a deer and had to buy a new grill. Sanded, primed, and painted. Still has to be touched up due to rock chips.
