Plasti dip acrylic grill

Yeah, not sure if it is stronger than OEM or not, but the aftermarket grille that is already sold here costs more than OEM one.

 

Like brushed titanium? Better yet, that beskar stuff used in the Mandalorian's armor.

 

@Sezy is the clear bra 3m or other paint protection film, clear Plactic Dip or some other kind of top coat?

Must be too early in the mornin... I see what it is now.
Looks nice ... hope it don't throw off the sonar

 

Just beware of the Mudhorns.

They do a number on that stuff.

 

I did invisablemask front bumper hood fenders and rear view on our 14 Prius Plugin. It's nice stuff and really hard to tell there is anything on top of the paint.
Invisablemask had 3 precut sizes for the plugin in 2014. They still have 3 sizes for the hood along with precut pieces for almost every part of the Prime you'd want to apply it too.
Invisablemask is 3m scotchguard pro and there site has installation and removal instructions

I had two bubbles on the compound angles in the lower bumper I could get to level out (not too noticeable unless you knew where to look) and the side rearviews took almost as long as all the others combined.

 

Hey there Salamander_King. I cracked the acrylic grille sub-assembly on my wife's 2020 prime yesterday and trying to find ways to replace it. I can't believe I am having to deal with is but hey I guess that's life

If I was to somehow find this acrylic piece perhaps from a salvage or wrecking yard without having to purchase the entire grille assembly (53101-47052), I am wondering if you see a way I can remove the old one and snap in the new piece into the existing grille without having to remove the entire bumper assembly?

I see that you have the grille sub-assembly on its own so I thought you might have a better idea on how it snaps into place.

Thanks in advance!

I still have not used my "spare" grille subassembly. But from working with it and removing just the acrylic part from the grille subassembly base (the black plastic part), it is impossible to just replace the acrylic part without first removing the grille subassembly from the car. In fact, I doubt you will be able to buy just acrylic parts separately. From what I have read and seen someone do it, removing the front bumper cover and replacing the entire grille subassembly is not too difficult. As long as it is in good condition, I would just swap the entire grille subassembly without removing the acrylic part from the base.
