Today i ended up painting the black plastic on the bottom of my front bumper to match the car. Came out pretty good. Now i am considering sanding the stock grill, priming, painting, and clear coating it. My car is artic white. Does anyone think this will look good or have pictures of anyone who has done it to a white or anyother color saab besides black?
body color FTW! its the best free mod next to clear corners and bumper chrome removal. i say DO IT! i took the turbo badge off mine too.. i like to be incognito, well untill the hear the bov. post a pic and ill photoshop it for you.
would take a pic of it now buts its in the garage and my dads car is blocking it in so i cant back it out right now for a good front end pic. But if you could grab a pic of a random white one off line or something that would be awesome!
heres mine.. i was thinking about doing the grill, mirrors and the spoiler because i already am getting a crack on the bumper fixed i was also thinking about getting a roof spoiler and have that painted but i cant find one
i just painted mine black....if u want i can send u a pic of it tomorrow....my car is outside and i realli dont feel like going out side to get a pic of it now...lol....im tired.....but anyways my car is black and i have my grille black....it looks great and it took like 20 mins to do with sanding and priming and painting....

i would like to do everything white grill, spoiler and mirrors.. i just have to get around to it. his car does look good with the silver but i also have thought about just smoking the grill out instead
clear coat will make it all better and shiney....it will realli gloss out and stand out and when u do it take out the word saab so when u put it back in with the black grille...the word SAAB stands out even more

So the grill came out awesome! it looks so good. I could not be happier! :cheesy: There is a little bit of over spray on the weather stripping but i will take care of that with a bit of black paint. Let me know what you guys think!!
martin.nicoll- your car is HOT! If you dont mind me saying. :lol: I wish we got the Viggen body cladding on the Aero's over here. I was debating what to do w/ my grill. I have the US Aero 9-3 known as the SE here same body color as yours. Your pics convinced me body color it is!
