It looks real good. Just wondering, what kind of tires do you have?

thanks,
James

Now you just need to shoot a little flat black on your tranny cooler and ps cooler so those shiny bits don't show through..... :D
 
sand it softly clean it prim it paint the colour u like and do 2 or 3 realy light coats and then put on some clear

I would like to paint the front grill on my 90, however, I gotz one question. Do you have to sand off all of the chrome or just scuff it up then paint it? also, do you prime it before you paint it flat black?

Dan..
 
as for the chrome i dont know some one else will i kno when paint chrome when its on metal all you have to do is scuff it up i didnt use a primer as far as im concered u dont need primer unless its metal or if youre gonna paint a light color over a dark
 
Looks awesome...i did the same thing on my 78 Camaro. hard to believe what a can of spray will do for the look of your ride.
 
I think it looks great. I've got my whole front end blacked out except for my lights. :thumb: Since I took this picture I've painted the trim around the grill and headlights black too. :D

Everything on mine will be black except for maybe the bowtie, K5 and Silverado emblems. I am thinking of painting them the green that my dif covers hubs are. All rattle can of course.

Looks great. I painted my 90 black too after the chrome stuff started peeling. Made a huge difference in the appearance. I used Rustoleum Hammered. I think i used 120 grit sandpaper on everthing so the paint would bite.
