by some spray paint at your local automotive center and clear coat it the paint doesnt dry to a gloss. remove the grill and tape the areas that you dont want paint on, wash with an sos pad and rinse off well then spray the color down in 1 or 2 coats or untill the color looks consistant, repeat with cleat if nessesary.
Note dont rush you paint let it "Flash off" between coats you will have better results aslo you do not need any primer
good luck

I painted mine up with touch up paint, same color as the car, i figured it looked pretty good considering most of it has now chipped off...
Use high quality paint, something that won't disintegrate befor your eyes lol
