    Selling a full grill setup, but willing to piece it out. All prices are including shipping.

    Fog Grilles (OEM): $50
    Lower Center (OEM): $50
    Main Center: $65


    The center grille face (not the honeycomb or chrome strip) was painted blue graphite pearl. Perfect color match on my car, and it looks awesome. Below is a pic of the grilles on my car, and then off the car. No plate holes. Main Center has a couple tabs missing but it still holds fast.

    If you don't like the price, make an offer!

    no sir, the main center face is blue graphite pearl. the honeycomb part of it is still black though. just the face was color-matched.

    its not plastidip, its the actual paint and clearcoat.

    painted myself, but matched to the exact color formula on my car (Blue Graphite Pearl, LC5F)

    if you have a blue graphite pearl jetta, chances are itll match. there are slight variances depending on what batch of paint the car was originally painted with, but its the actual paint so... yea no plastidip =]

    I'm sorry I was misunderstood. I meant, is the grill black, I'm trying to avoid having to plasti dip it to get it black.

    It looks great and congrats on the win.

    is there any easy way to get it back to OEM?

    haha no problem, yea all the honeycomb parts are black. the main grill is shinier than the oem, its not that textured finish. the other three pieces are all oem textured black.

    getting it back to oem.. i'm assuming you mean the face of the main grill? the closest thing would probably be to paint it black and clearcoat it, to give it that black glossy finish. you can't strip the paint off and return to normal because of the pre-paint prep. scuffing and adhesion promoter, to make sure it never flakes off.

    no, sorry. auto paint isn't cheap, and its time. scuff, adhesion promoter, primer, base coat, clear coat.. even if i had the black paint, its not worth my time for what i'm selling it for.

    if you need the lower pieces too, remember they're all still oem finish.
