    Painting the grill to match my car

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I would love to paint my front grill the color of my car...BLACK. Shall i get the paint from the dealer? Or will something else be a good alternative. How much does dealer paint go for? I am looking to paint the grill but leaving the Audi Rings chrome, the surrounding chrome, and the audi s4 emblem in tact. Anyone got any ideas?

    The grille's already black, why paint it? I say leave it. Get an RS4 grille...even better.
