Lightbulb Bottom grill

Is there someone who has done some change to the bottom grill of their Protege (not MP5) ? I'm thinking about changing his color, but I'm not sure about which one ?

Any tips or pics ?

Thanks

On Tuesday I am going to try to make a mesh cover for the upper and lower part of the grill on my 02 ES. I will post how it goes.

I also thought of doing that and I think that is what I'm gonna do ! If you could post some pics it would be great, but dont go too hard on your scanner !

When you say "aluminium", you mean like your rims or a silver kind color ? Did you use a simple plastic paint ?

Thanks

Yeah i just sued some Krylon (I think that's the brand), popped the grills out. Cleaned them really good and sprayed away. And yeah it is the aluminum that matches my wheels. I used the flat color too. No clear coat although I suppose you could. But since the grills are already flat black, and the aluminum mathced my Enkei wheels so well. I just left it with the paint and nothing else. I seriously think my scanner is dead though. I'll take a look at it later this evening...err wait no I won't its Friday night. I'll take a lok at it tomorrow. peace
