dont paint it black the grille is nice as is. and a black grille on a white car with no other signs of black would look like ur car was missing a grille instead of having a dope one. spend the money on cleaning the condensation lense :P

Anyone had any luck cleaning the headlight lenses? Mine are not this bad but it almost makes me want to invest in buying a new set. I've been waiting on someone to make an aftermarket set, because $500 per headlight is more than what I wanted to spend.

Seeing an actual example of this grill in black is better than what I thought it would look like. I agree this is real clean. I take back what I said about adding a chrome symbol, that would completely take away from the smooth lines. If you had to have symbol, black would be the only way to go.
