Dodge Demon grill detailing

[Shark]

Building the new release Dodge Demon kit. Easy enough assembly, but those who have built one, how did you detail the grill/headlight part.     Thanks

Thanks for the lead John. I rarely build replica stock, so I am not familiar with sources for parts. I wanted to try this one box stock, but the grill leaves a lot to be desired.

Spray it flat black, then dry brush the raised edges and outer edges  silver

 

It  lends itself to some decent detail work

Follow John's advise and get the grill From Few Sprues Loose. I used their Duster grill on a project and have their Demon grill for future use.

To my eye, the parking lamps are the weak point. There's no way to make the kit's grille's parking lamps appear realistic ! Too bad, as this kit features separate back-up lamps - not sure why the parking lamps were "phoned in".

Canuck 3-D also has a printed one.

Thanks for the responses and options y'all gave.

Like I said, I usually don't do street stock, but had to do this one. When I was about 10, my dad came home with a 340 bright green Demon with the hood scoops, rear wing and black trim. Mom blew a fuse over the color. He returned in a couple hours with a bronze one with a 318 and hubcaps.
