It looks like a professional paint/powder coat job... Only it was $5.98 vs. $300+. And you can remove it when you get tired of it--As you can see, I sprayed the entire grille and removed the plasti dip from the rings after it dried; all very simple. I'll be plasti dipping my headliner this evening.

what about the empty space in the grill area? did you mask this so it wouldnt spray on any of the internal parts??

Only the upper and lower grille has openings, and they're rather small, as I'm sure you know... I sprayed them at angles
