Does anyone have any pics of a plasti-dipped front grill? Also has anyone used the gloss spary on plasti-dip? Pics? Thinking of Plasti-dipping my front grill but i don't know how the matte black grill would look on a gloss black truck.

Yes, it was chrome. And if you want the center out, yes, it does need to be cut out.

Mine is vinyl overlay. I went to a local vinyl shop and asked them to cover it for me. I cannot remember what they charged but is has been on there for about 3 years now without any issues.
