j.beesley Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hi want my front grille on my focus gloss black the question is buy one or spray it. Looking to spray my fog light surronds as well. Tips/advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Haven't seen any gloss black grills and spraying thems a nightmare due to the honeycomb design very hard to get them sprayed properly and evenly fog light surrounds are easy as long as you prep them well and given the abuse they will get from the road plenty of lawyer will be needed or they will chip easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.beesley Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 i can find ones that they honeycomb design is black and the outer trim is primed ready to be painted. I'm okay at spraying I guess, taking it off and giving it a thorough go at it may do the trick. Wondering if anyone has purchased one?

This is a front grille of a Focus MK2.5. You need a front grille of a Focus MK2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.beesley Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 Sheez all look similar when you've been scouring the Internet. Links to any black ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JW1982 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 As far as I know there are not many different Focus MK2 front grilles available. Originally there were only the stock front grille without chrome surrounding, with chrome surrounding and the styling pack grille which has a different type of mesh. Next to this there was the optional MS design stainless steel front grille. Personally I have never seen a gloss black front grille for the MK2 (except the ones that were painted by a specialist).
