Oh, I thought you meant mesh for the lower grill and the upper grille mesh was already black.

I'm guessing that the upper grille frame is black and you are debating on what color mesh to use in the upper grille...?

rustoleum gloss black. light coats 2-3 and then rustoleum clear coat... light coats 2-3... i did this on the first mesh i made but didn't like the mesh. i got a new mesh and am having it powdercoated gloss black:) if you can find someone local to powdercoat that is the way to go... make sure you use STAINLESS STEEL screws and washers!!!

I wouldnt do gloss, id do a matt finish for the grill. I have a section of mesh im trying to figure how to install in the lower opening and I got matt black, so it matches the grill mesh which isnt shiney.

Wow, the srt with the pink is def different. I hope a girl owns that car though. But still, talk about ruining a car.
