Blacked out front grills

Just gotten these shiny grills painted black. The paint they used is removable and the semi-gloss black looks great compared to the original color. A little over 100 CAD, my car is mostly blacked out and the next move is gonna be the exhaust tips and ceramic coating.

I'm thinking of doing the same - do you by any chance have a better lit picture? maybe with more of the car in view?

I'm a fool - I paid the dealer to swap out to the gloss black grill before I collect the car this weekend. Expensive too!

Which paint did you use??
Knowing my luck, I would paint it and it would start flaking off after a while!!! lol
