I like black mesh. That looks like body kit mesh, which to me looks horrid

but good install!

I don't like it. It doesn't flow with the upper grille.

But good install.

Ah. Maybe if you throw a layer of epoxy over the black would work. Stiffen it up too

Probably some kind of oil on the metal from the manufacturing process. Try cleaning it with something that will remove the oil before painting. Hope this helps.

Clearcoat is not the same as epoxy. Try epoxy. But Scotty has a point too. Degrease it or somethingp

You know pep boys has an underbody coating spray that's rubber like. That should probably stick better

buy a degreaser... duplicolor makes one... then try to do a light sanding on it and then degrease it again and then rty to paint it...

BLACK grilles FTW..!
