well, the seller asked for my installed pic. too but i sent him mine with the painted version. i guessed he didn;t like it painted. he likes yours. yeah, those are the aerosol can paint i bought from expresspaint.com . they are really good at matching the color. that's the exact color code that i requested. i got them for around 60 bucks include prime, clear and color coat. however, when i removed the grille for paint the chrome part, i think i reversed the grille so i have to paint the grille w/ black color.

I bet you probably did it right.

Has anyone else here who bought one noticed the black starting to fade to a bronze color on the black grille? Mine seems to be fading to me... so it looks like I'll have to paint it black.
