Just came across this site. I think I have seen that grille and wheels before. Anyone recognizes this VX?

Nice. Sure hope it was treated properly first with the right plastic adhesives. I have seen 2 VXs that had painted cladding and both failed to do it properly.... leading to cracking and peeling.

You've got that right for sure! I used to work for Northstar Automotive and we sold, among many other things, replacement bumper covers and refinishing products from PPG and Spies Hecker (Say "Speezecker", top-notch German automotive paint products.) I can tell you, prep is everything when it comes to painting anything, especially plastics. Talk about some horror stories!
