Painted my radiator grill

Recently I baught the official Yamaha radiator grill.
It was in aluminum (not painted). So I decided to paint it black with some golden touches.

Pics when it's installed on the bike will follow very soon (the laque is still drying)

3 layers of black spraypaint
3 layers of golden paint
2 layers of Laque

Looks nice, I like it!

Looks great! I've got the same rad cover and have felt that it doesn't look quite right. What you've done really ties it together.

Love that first shot with the clouds in the background!

 

[Rossy]

That is one classy mod. I might even do the same to mine

Looks awesome. I have the stock rad guard as well and had been thinking some paint would improve the look; you've confirmed, thanks for posting.

I agree with Blanchy, the pic with the clouds is awesome and should be made into a poster for the FZ8. Although I'm not a fan of gold on our bikes you definitely pulled it off... "A+"

Looks a lot better than the shiny finish it originally came in.
