Spray the grille blade/s parts from "behind" first before anything, turn the grille all directions/angles to get all the nooks and corners (from behind), this will help stop any paint build up you will get on the front of the grille blades, instead of trying to do it all from the front.
Plus then when you switch round to paint the front, you can focus a little more on the finish, rather than spot spraying to get inside all the hard to get to corners etc.
