Default Who has painted or bedlined their front grill so its black?

I've been thinking about this mod lately. I have seen a few pics on here of jeeps with black grills but not seen it in person.

Can anyone who has done this mod post up a few pics, and also describe what you used on the grill and how its holding up? Any regrets or insights you can offer from doing this?

If I do mine ill probably use spray bedliner cause I would want a Matt finish and a bit of texture to match slider/bumper/wheel powdercoat. Here is where I am now as I debate whether or not to do this mod...
