Paint matching with the gray Badlands grill

[Bird Dog Off Road]

Just curious if anyone has used a spray paint that closely matches the Badlands grill color. My Badlands is getting build at the end of the month and I have some signature emblems in Matte black that I'm considering to paint to match the grill.

I used these guys to get a couple of cans of Carbonized Gray and clear coat to paint my Sasquatch Trim Rings.

I'm very satisfied with the match. Finishing them up on Weds hopefully.

Yes. XPEL Stealth wrapped.

I'm thinking of doing the opposite and and painting al badges and the Badlands grille black. I hate the color of it.

Love that. I actually ordered a couple of spray cans last week and plan to paint my trim rings Carbonized Grey this weekend.

How about just blacking out the letters with some vinyl like this?

How does that help the fact that I don't like the carbonized gray grille color? Lol I actually love the white letters.

The Base grill is black - and add white vinyl…

I purchased some Plastidip in "Anthracite Grey" as apparently it's a very close match to the grey on the grill. There's a forum post somewhere on here if you search for it.

It might be a good option for you. I'm using this to spray my "Bronco" emblem on the cargo door when mine arrives.

Who is talking about the base grille?

They DID turn out great! Now that's it's been a year, how have they held up?
Also, do you know the exact color that you ordered...I don't see Carbonized Gray as an option? Thank you!

Held up fine. Lots of dings and scratches from rocks and such.

This is the paint I used. Lots of prep with scotch Brite!
