Default Anybody done Red Front Grill on Obsidian Black?

Been having matte black paint on the chrome part of the F-sport grill for the past year. since I did it with spray, its worn off and chipped now and its due for a re-paint. was thinking about doing a dark matte Red color this time but cant find a sample photo on neither black or even white color.

if anyone has done this or has a link / pics would appreciate sharing it here.

Looks like you're going to be the first one.

Did you go through with it? I'm thinking about doing something similar, maybe gold or red and then don't the trim to match. I have black car

I've done it on a black car before. I'll have to see if I can find pictures of it and post it up for you guys.

To each their own, haha. it's something I could never do.

Though I would be curious to see it on numerous color variations.

maybe it is the angle of the cars, or maybe its the camera angle, but the white cars with all black stock wheels in this thread look lowered? are they? I am curious...

also, I am not typically a fan of an all black wheel but since my Tacoma and my daughter's Cherokee Trailhawk have all black wheels on white paint, I am starting to come around. but, I find myself wondering what white wheels on the white paint of the RC would look like? yes, we own 3 white vehicles, lol.

my wife loves Tiffany blue, and Superwrap has released a few new colors and a real close match to Tiffany Blue. I might do her wheels in that just for the hell of it...
