Default Friday project

Well I'm between drying times, and I'm bored, so I reckoned that I would share my project in progress.

Before:

I took off the grille guard, removed the 2 center bars, sanded it down, primed it and now I'm putting Bedliner on it. Also plastidiping my bumper and chrome ring around grille, and ima clear coat that.

I thought about it, but I like being able to peal it off if I mess it up. Plus this crap I got from autozone spews it out like when you put your thumb over a hose.

I think it looks good? Haha you need a better pic, but nice job! What grit sand paper did you use? I almost bought the same grille guard but I didn't like the chrome... I might just do what you did...
