How to Best Restore a Grille for 69 Dart

I would suggest removing the tape while the Diamond Clear is still tacky. I was going for as close to original as possible so the black is a matte finish and the silver has a slight texture to it, Clear coating all of it wouldn't look right to me.

This is what I based my resto on. I took a pic of a restored one at the Mopar Nats last year. The guy wanted $800 for the grille.
