Some paint...
Some paint...
Decided to black out the front end as well as some engine work.
Used an undercoating spray as well as adhesion promoter for the grille and bumper.
Krylon for the engine cover and fuse box lid. Duplicolor for the tower strut bar.

Also like the sound of that idea but looks nice
You should also think about painting the bottom of the bumper.

I originally wanted to do a black lettering/white cover combo, but, didn't want to mess around with it a whole lot and I didn't want to spend a lot of time doing it.
Update on the paint......received a nice big gash on the black painted piece just under the left part of the grille.
Will try to get it re-done in the next few days, but, can't find the Plasti-dip at my local home depot here in Calgary. They didn't have anything like it. I might have to go to another location in the city to find it.
