Default Painted grills

If you have a painted grill and did not DIY, who did it for you? What I'm asking is what places would be able to paint the chrome at a reasonable price?

No, I really don't trust myself to do a good job on it.[sm=badidea.gif]

Any paint/bodyshop will be able to and shouldnt be more than 50 - 70 bucks. If that.

Haha... the only reason I'm not gonna do it myself is because I've heard of the painted chipping and needing the touch up on occasion. I'd rather it be done professionally for p.o.m.

Didnt any of your teachers show you how to follow directions?? There is already a DIY article on how to do it professionaly. Even if it does chip over time, it can be redone, and if you really like the mod, you could do it again for free because you arent going to use up all of the materials needed to get it done with after the 1st time.
