Black Sport Grille

I am considering getting the sport grille, and painting it nighthawk black pearl(or crystal black). Has anyone done this, or seen it?

I am somewhat of a noob at anything that requires any sort of labor (:P), how do I paint the grille?

I got the idea from the mugen Si Grill:

That is my only concern, but I guess if I was displeased with the outcome, I could always paint it Blaze orange, right?(my fit is BOM)

Here is mine at a different angle than the one already posted. Have someone else paint it if you do not have any experience painting, especially using a rattle can. If you still want to do it yourself then I would suggest searching around the internet and you can pretty much find what you are looking for on how to paint. Here is a DIY from a fellow member.

I would stick with color matching the grill. You will be very pleased with it BOM.

Wow that's a great DIY guide, exactly what I was looking for! I think you guys talked me into BOM instead of black.
And Osborne, that fit looks super slick from that angle.
