Default Microsoft Paint grill modification to my car

I attached a pic of my car that I modified using Microsoft Paint. Its a little rushed, and not perfect. My idea is to replace the grill with aluminum mesh and then put a chrome "LEXUS" eblem on the front. What do you think?

I had to cut the pic down to fit. Now that I've seen it on the forum, I agree that it looks like crap. It would be more like the black gs that was posted. I wouldn't use mesh that shiney it was the only sample that I had a pic off. If I did it it would be more "Steel Grey" and of course the area behind the mesh would be dark and not white.
