Who has a custom 90-91 grill?

[mndude07]

I have a 92, but i got a 90-91 grill at the junkyard, and im painting the chrome square and the piece with the "H" in it black, but i taped off the H itself so its still chrome....just wondering if anyone has something like this or a different variation. If u want post pics, and ill post one of mine when its done tomorrow or sunday.

i have a 91 grill with the plastic surronding piece and h emblem painted old and i got the black slants out and filled in with mesh i personally like it ill try to get pics of it up asap

ummm, meaning like exactly what I have?

[Falder]

nvm, I see now that your only painting the square around the H black, still these pics might help.

[mndude07]

nope, your right, its gonna look just like yours when its done. I've gotta sand out a little imperfection tomorrow and then give it the paint, right now its just primed....i thought about spraying the main black plastic piece chrome, so it would have a reverse look, but thats something that would either look really good or really tacky, and thats too much of a gamble.

[Falder]

ya, painting the main piece chrome would most likely be tacky. GL

[mndude07]

yea thanks...is your car a BBB with grey paint? cuz thats what ive got also...grey BBB coupe 92

I cut the H out of mine and put a mesh grill in, like a bunch of others have done. Looks good though.

[mndude07]

yea, i did that with my original 92 grill, so i'm gonna see which one I like more. I'll put up pictures of both grills hopefully tomorrow

[Falder]

Nope, not a BBB but its a 91lx4dr so they look similar

[mndude07]

allright I've got both grills here, tell me what ya think. and this is for anyone to reference if they wanna know what the blacked out grilles look like.

peace out

Looks good, you use a gloss black? I use flat black

[mndude07]

Ummm i think its more of a satin finish really, but the can of paint i used says on the front "Trim Paint"...its duplicolor brand, and the label on the front is green. Your right though, its a little shinier than flat, but it still looks fine to me

hey buddy, like the blacked out grill, I love to see good DIY jobs. Because these accords are so rare down here in Australia nearly everything has to be a DIY job, allthough i did manage to get my hands on a wicked body kit the other day to fit mine. Look after yourself
