Nice you did primer it first right? I learned this the hard way from doing my grill.
Sand, primer, sand, paint, sand, paint, sand, clear coat. sand, clear coat
let dry for 24 hours and install .. other wise it will chip and look horrible in a while.

That grille looks like it will be nasty on your blaze, I think it'll look awesome with a billet bowtie.

ok cool just had to check the first time i painted my grill on my 97 actually i did the quick and easy one coat and it lasted about a month before i had big chunks of chrome showing through It was only after i talked to a buddy about it he told me the method and i've never had a problem since lol
