Default A/C Vents
I had been lookin for some black ac vents for my truck cuz Im not to fond of the silver so I was bored today so I figured Id just go ahead and paint em.. they turned out alot better than I thought.

Fairly simple really.. just take em out and remove the chrome piece and i hit it with some 220 grit sand paper a lil bit to rough it out then put about 6 light coats at a time of Krylon Fusion Plastic black satin paint. took about an hour mainly cuz I didnt want run spots and stuff.

Just open them. Then put your fingers between the vents and pull, it takes a lil bit but you aint gonna break anything.
