Dude this forum is for posting pics of the X in action or in the driveway. If you need to ask a specific question and request pictures do it in the forum that corrisponds with the question.

About 3 or so coats of Krylon Fusion.



No prep other than taping off & cleaning well with alcohol. Still going strong 6 months later.

BigE...did you have to take off the Shrocks Bumper in order to Spray Paint the Grille...or just wrap everything up in paper...

I painted mine as well and with the Shrock bumper on I had to take 2 of the three bolts out on each side allowing me to rotate the bumper forward enough to pull the grille off.

Looks good. I plan on doing that to mine since its faded. What kind did you use and has it chipped off any?

I think if you prep the surface well and use quality stuff you should be fine.

I used Krylon Fusion (Meant for plastics) flat black....came out well, has been a few years, and it looks the same so far.
