I have lots of little chips and crap on my radiator grill or whatever it is that is right behind the 2 front grilles. It is black but with bugs and chips it is all specaled with stuff.
I wanted to spray paint it matte black but was not sure if paint could get into that thing-not sure if it is possible. Can I just spray paint it matte black without a problem?

right but getting paint spray in the grille itself is not bad? or what is the grill for-I am confused? Is it just a way for air to get in and the radiator pipes run beside that? i do not want to spray it and get paint into the radiator and damage it?
