Nice looking boat and great SC customer service story! Kudo's...........
Some Exile love;
You may remember, I had my XM9s painted to match the '08 Outback. This time around I figured I'd try to spray em myself. Before, scuffed and ready to prime;

I also PlastiDip'd the grilles;

I think they came out great!
Ian, that looks Aewsome .
With all the plasti dip talk on here. I was thinking about my xm9 grills, originally I had ordered them black but the black we're back ordered so I got the chrome. How did you get it down the throat of the horn grill.?
got additional pics...
Looks awesome. Is the black a flat finish?

looks awesome Ian, cant wait till you get them on the tower and have a nice sunny day to photo them for us
Those are even cooler than the blue!
Regarding painting the grills; it seemed that the PlastiDip just goes right in the horn hole; I didn't have to do anything.
Regarding color; it is my understanding that Intense Green is new for 2013, but I haven't seen them side by side. I used ModelMaster Sublime Green (Mopar) which isn't exact, but is pretty close.
The key to making it look good is in the clear coat; I use Rustoleam Painters Touch 2x Coverage clear coat - it is the best clear I've ever seen!

Here is a picture that shows the color match - like I said, not exact but close enough for me, especially since they won't be next to each other;
