Looks good. I would like to try that. What Brand did you use?

I like it. Nice job. Did you use flat black, semi-gloss black, etc? - Dave

i used duplicolor gloss black, it came out pretty good and changed the entire look of the car overall

[70mcarlo]

I agree - looks good!

[72-CLASSIC_RIDE]

I like it!

 

Considering doing something similar with my 72 Grill. I have another 72 Grill I may experiment with to find the right blend.

 

Good Job,

I did mine too but left the front of the fins chrome I like it not a huge noticable thing but I think it looks good. If I ever get my computer back up I will post pictures.

Looks pretty good. I agree about getting rid of the headlight chrome covers, too much contrast with the new black grill.

Clean off the front bars, then you'll have a real billet look.

The first step in the right direction!

 

Pretty soon your monte will look like:

I painted mine black also, but kept the chrome on the front. Makes for a nice change.

[Andreas]

Well, they are fiberglass bumpers and would be kinda hard to be chromed...
