I must say, after today I was tempted to try a DIY repair... I resprayed my grille a nice matte black. The very first time I washed my car with that grille on, the paint chipped in one corner and I've been meaning to respray it ever since. I finally took it off today and sanded it back, then resprayed it. It came up a treat!! I'm quite impressed with how well it worked. A grille is one thing though, I don't know if I'm game to attempt spraying my car...
