Raptor's Official Grille Upgrade Thread
Good luck with the project Raptor.
Sounds like an interesting project with the grill. Looking forward to seeing your project.
I've been carded for DayQuil and smokes and spray paints, but... I recently got carded for the most retarded thing... 8:00 on a cold 10 degree night, got carded for a can of De-Icer.

Woot! She's done!
Well today after school I planned to hang out at my friend house. Turns out his dad (the planned painter) had the day off. So we roll down to AutoZone and get some epoxy and fix the crack. We primed, painting and 3x cleared it. Pics:

Starting out with all the supplies. Laquer thinner, JB Weld, Primer, Paint, reducer, Clear, etc.


His dad setting up ^^^

First shot of primer. The color difference between primer and paint was very close, but this is basically what it will look like.
