Default Rhino Lining on front grill

I saw a post on another forum from earlier in the year. A guy was talking about having Rhino Lining sprayed on his front grill.

Anybody done that? Any thoughts on how well it would hold up?

Will Rhino, Herc, & Line-X even stick to plastic?

I remember reading in another thread (can't remember which one) where someone put the spray on from some store on the fender flares of a Sahara and made it look more X/Rubi like. I'd imagine if you scuff it up to give it something to hold to, it would hold to the grill. I was in the dealership the other day and asked about a replacement grill, just cause the thought crossed my mind. I believe I was quoted something like either $180 or $250, with list being $250 or over $300. I may be off on those prices though.

Do Line-X
They have one with kevlar in it which wears great
and sticks very well. (not sure about plastic but almost positive)

I am having them do the back door (inside) of my Rubi, the lip where the hardtop sits and around it as well as possibly the wheel wells.

I've seen Jeeps with LineX covering the entire exterior.

There is a guy here that has his fender flares, interior door panels, dash, and almost every other plastic piece on his TJ Linex. So I would have to say that it should go on the grill with no problems. I was thinking about doing that to my JK when it gets messed up.
