Looks alright a little off because now it looks like the original grill from far, you should have kept it white and did the emblems black that would have looked nice or make the grill gloss black. At least you used plasti dip.

I actually do like it blacked out like that. Before had a little too much chrome going on. This is much more subtle and sleek.

My gosh, it looks waaaayyy better painted black. The white grill looked like an Albino....no contrast. This looks nice. Good work!

it really depends on what you want!
Chrome = classy.
Black = Black grille
I would stick with Chrome.
