Painting Your G37 Grill

December 10, 2009 by admin

I figured I’d paint my G37 grill black. Well actually I tried smoke metal first, (see below) but didn’t like it. For anyone else who has had this idea here’s a write up.

1. First remove the grill from the car (thats a pain in the butt)

2. Sand the grill down with 100 grit sandpaper. Here it is half sanded:

Here’s a close up:

Completely sanded:

3. Apply the first coat of primer(I used Dupli-Color filler primer):

4. Apply 2nd coat:

5. First coat of Black (used Dupli-Color high temp Gloss Black):

6. 3rd coat of Black:

7. 1st coat of Clear-coat Dupli-Color wheel covering:

8. After the 3rd coat of clear-coat is dry:

With the Mt. Fuji symbol back on:

Back on the car:
