Been done for a while, painted black, I was just so excited the day I got the tires mounted that I had to see what they looked like on the car.

Did you take the bumper cover off to paint the grill?

I took mine off to paint them and it was a ********************, nothing too hard its just a lot of wrenching and crawling around on the ground. Well worth it though, plus you can clean the radiators out when your in there.

I had my pumper off to clean the radiators and decided to paint the grills then. They pop off the pumper, makes it easy to paint them. there is a youtube video on how to take the bumper off, it says use two people but I did it myself.

I have not done the rear lights yet. I have thought about doing those as well as the clear side marker lights too. Maybe a project for this winter. I also wanted to share a couple HDR pics my buddy took the other day.
