S70 grill and horn
 
I was extremely bored this morning and being 18 without a job i cannot afforda newgrill however I was feeling extra impatient so I washed then lightly sanded my stock grill and spray panted it black with krylon plastic spraypaint. In addition to the grill i also did the 2 small vents on the bottom of my bumper beside the fog lights. Suprisingly it came out really nice. When putting everything back onto my car I was feeling ambitious and dismounted my horns, used masking tape to cover the hole and the metal part and spray painted them metallic gold. I was wondering if anyone else has painted there horns because its rare if ever that I see a horn any color besides black. I was also wondering what else I could spray paint on either the inside or outside of my car. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Most don't paint them because they don't want them to stand out. They want the stealth look.

I know that some tuner cars have red horns.

If you want to show off the horns, at least get some horns worthy of showing off like air horns :).

haha. I think I would rather spend my money on performance over air horns. I like it for right now because its not that noticable but when you see it your like holy **** those are metalic gold. Ill probably end up painting them black real soon.

Haha. Leavethem gold itwouldlookpretty goodwithother tastefull accents.

Yeah....AutoZone has the Blazer air horns for $26-$31. I put them on my car, because me being in California, there are TOO many stupid drivers who don't care to hear a factory horn. By the way....They sound Awsome and pretty loud :).
