I cut the fins on my grill and put mesh instead. I have a white galant.
What color should I paint it?
Any suggestions ?

i am still undecided on weather to paint the grill white and leave the mesh black...
as of the radiator support... it will definetly be painted but the problem is:
looks like its is going to be hard to sand it... as well as to cover the radiator before painting it...
any tips?

the brackets that hold the radiator in are right there on top. so if you just take those out, you can move the radiator enought to stick like a piece of carboard or paper over it to protect it. just remember to take out out when you're done.
