Did you know

I have a 99 GS 300. It has a stock grill. I wanted to upgrade it to a chrome one. When I looked at it closley, there was paint chips on the black paint. Under the black paint it looked like there was chrome under it. So I took some steel wool and took the paint off on the up and down fins and revieled a chrome plating. That saved me some cash.
