Looks clean, just needs a drop. About the grill, you can use some paint stripper to remove the black paint. It's chrome underneath.

I don't know why, but new people are always quick to declare that they aren't ricers. But I haven't seen anyone who openly admits to being a ricer.

You can have my word for it if my car will ever look like those plastic monsters you can personally burn my car down or keep it and strip it and have it your way
