Millions of threads asking about what are the options for for aftermarket grills (answer: one rare option)

But there's no-where for any info on how to paint these, got a damaged repairable grill to put on the car once it's painted.

Any tips, tricks, recommended paints to use from those that have already done it?,

Intention was to use black stone chip paint and lacquer until I run out.

Have started by sanding all chrome work down to bare plastic and starting repairing the damage, I'm documenting what I do in case it helps anyone afterwards.

Cheers all,
Scott
