Krylon dual (primer & paint in one) satin black or gloss black. Btw is the grille a full replacement I'm looking for a easy swap out bolt on deal.

well, the top part's not the bottom's bolt on. But the installation is easy, just look up some videos on yotube.

What's the eBay link for the one your looking at.

I used SEM trim paint from Napa. It comes in gloss or semi gloss. Make sure you scuff up the polished surface before you paint it.

And you how's the best way to scuff off the polished surface?

At Napa in the paint section they should have some Red scuff pads. If not use some sand paper 400-600 should work.
