    HOW TO - Plastidip Guide To Spraying The Front Grill

    Cheers for the comments guys. I thought about taking off the grill and i was abit worried about doing it but plastidip isn't like spray paint its very very easy to use and its quite targeted if that makes sense i.e when it comes out the can it doesn't disperse nearly as much as paint does.
