Front Grille Bars

[Rubyred]

This is what lock down boredom produces. I have sprayed the four grille bars on my W205 to match the car colour.
I know it’s not to every bodies taste, but it looks different to all the other W205s out here.
Im no paint sprayer, in fact I hate doing any paint work on a car, it never looks right and this is no different.
There are bits that need touching in, but it’s not bad really.
Just needs to harden for a few weeks then I can cut it back a bit.
Paint was all Halfords rattle cans which preformed well. The Hyacinth Red is slightly darker, but should lighten up in time.

It looks great. You are braver than me to attempt it

Looks goodYou're a braver man than me painting the grille in situ, but then I've painted bike engines in the frame in the past Properly masked, as I see you did there, a decent job is achievable

Good job!

You did it with it still on the car!!!

I think that looks good in terms of colour match, complementing the body colour. A nice change in my opinion.

Thank you all. I did in situ as I didn’t fancy taking the front of the car apart. I couldn’t get the chrome strips off so had to mask them all up. It’s by no means a professional job but it looks pretty good.
