Hi

I have acquired another grille for my van as mine is held on with zip ties at the bottom, but its quite old and faded.
what have people done in the past to revitalize the look? or is it just a case of respraying it?

any tips greatly appreciated!

I just sprayed mine with some black Plastikote after a clean.

I gave mine a light sandblasting and sprayed with matt black.
