Re: Any ideas how to strip the paint from the grille

I think I'll pressure clean it. Get really fine wet sand paper and rub it down... Then prime it like I did the tail lights....
Then got to find a color that suits. I think the gun metal might be to dark for the grille

Re: Any ideas how to strip the paint from the grille

I would rather do it myself if I can. The grille was on a hardtop drag car and was painted matt black with no prep work so it's pretty messy. It's a good grille just the paint is messy

Re: GC Galant Hardtop - wheel offset

I reckon they will be a perfect fit. Worst case would be having to run a 5mm slip on spacer on the front but that would most likely depend on tyre choice. A tyre like this on the front would be a sweet match http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290542081199&ssPageName=STRK:...
