IMO, the bottom grill actually clashes with your wheels,,, doesn't make it look better. i would black it out. it would look so much cleaner. overall i really like what you are doing with your car. she looks great. keep up the good work.

I think gloss black would be ****. Plastidip it, then spray it gloss black, that way you could remove the paint if you aren't feeling it.
