    I have a black grille, and i painted my bowtie black. I sanded it with like 4oo grit if i remember correctly, then used 2 coats of etching primer, 3 coats of paint (waiting hour or so between coats) and a 4ish coats of clear. Have had it for almost 2 years, have 1 or 2 tiny chips, but that is from pretty hard abuse by bugs/ following behind other trucks on gravel roads, hitting branches offroad, etc.
