Default Cheap and awesome Mod idea....

Ok, so I already know one of the first mods I intend to implement when I get the GS but I have not seen anyone on here do this as of yet and its ultra cheap to do.

The lower plastic mesh grill in the front lower lip of the vehicle is shaped nicely but unfortunately very unnoticable due to it being black plastic. Why not spray it with some Krylon Plastic coating spray and make it look like a silverish or stainless steel color? I think the grill would look real nice and look as if it was metal. The crosshatch design of the grill would be extremely noticeable at this point.

If anyone has already done this please post pics....if not, I hope some of you will pick up this easy mod.

OK, I've seen a sample of what it could look like after this mod is done. It seems that the lower grill would look more like the picture on PAGE 2 of the 2007 GS Brochure vs PAGE 15 of the brochure where you cant see the grill design. I think it would look really nice, do these pics encourage anyone to do it?

Also, doing this mod would make the grill look like PAGE 33 of the 2006 GS Brochure.
