At this point, getting it clear PPF'd would add little value IMO, just because you'd be able to see the damage/chips through the film. You can use PPF, but now some shops can get you GLOSS BLACK PPF - which provides protection alongside the benefit of hiding the chips. You can also go with @sickpuppy 's recommendation of wrapping it with a vinyl wrap to the color of your choice (or CF look like his).
might want to add a smiley so we know you weren't serious then. 
do you have any experience with something like this? if not, just get a shop to do it! i doubt it will be that expensive and you have an LC, not a civic. 
i think the chrome part is part of the front bumper, but maybe it comes off separately somehow?
But still its such a small area hard to get a pro to commit to it. I was hoping for it to be something more I could do. Like some 3m film that could be applied. Although bending and stretching it may be a challenge.
I assume you have to replace the entire grille if I went with something new?

^^^^No, not a shop that does film and shop that does wrap. Here:

As far as cost, I don't know, I had more than just the grill done. Look Here:

Total for all was $535.

^^^^Yes., their work was fine. on a scale of 1-10 - I'd give them an 8½. The wrap on the right taillight has the weave going in the wrong direction. I didn't catch it until I got home. Other than that everything's fine.
