so i finished this grill today. the silver, used to be chrome. i tried to match the painting as much as i could. painted the new grill black and clear coated it all. let dry and mmm.... turned out looking pretty good if you ask me. give me some feedback. do you like? or do you not?

i used some paint i found at advanced autoparts or w/e, it was actually lighter then my car. but the clear coats make it seem darker. so it matches very well
