Great 4.8.

Would you mind sharing how you blacked out your grill and hood vents? Paint? Plasti Dip? Or did you buy aftermarket?

I've seen a bunch of black grills but not too many blacked out hood vents (unless I've missed other members pics). Did you go from titanium to black??

Thanks!

I plastidipped both the kidney grills and the hood vents! I used about 6 coats of the matte black plastidip which can be bought at home depot or online at dipyourcar.com. So far I have had it on the car about 2 weeks and it has been perfect!

Thanks very much for the info

Looks great and IMO the black hood vents are a nice touch
