When I painted my lower grilles, I went back and filled in the solid holes with black paint.






First I scrubbed them with strong soap and a scrub brush. Let them dry overnight. 2 coats of epoxy primer. Then 2 coats of Duplicolor silver wheel paint. With an eyedropper, I filled the solid holes with thinned black paint. Next day I put 2 coats of satin clear.



Good Luck, James
That does look very nice. And the eyedropper with the black paint sounds like it would save me some taping off. Gets me back in the mood to try to get thos things out. Another fellow says that the locking tabs are toward the center and none exist on top or bottom. Thinks that bowing the grill might let the tabs clear on that one end. Tomorrow I"ll have to go out and give it another go to see if I can get them out....That really does look nice on your coupe....Popeye
