Inferno gets a little satin black

[Rubicon_]

With CSS next week i pushed my self to finally giving the grills etc a fresh lease of life as they were getting way to faded. Used regular satin black, took the front bumper off and got to work. Gave the engine bay a quick clean as well.

Turned out 'nae' bad.

Been wanting to do this aswell but have been put of by being left with grey wing mirror surronds. Is there a way to remove them or can they just be masked up ?

they can be removed from the inside i think, i just give mine some plastic restore gel each wash.

I did all my grills satin black back in 2010. Still looks fresh! Do it if your thinking of it. I need to get it done on the flamer.

Did you primer it up? or just straight on with the satin black?

How many coats?

Do they not get stone chipped?

I have one or two chips on the upper grill but easy to touch up
