Don't think a black grill with Bordeaux would work. Maybe if someone could pshop the car with a black grill but the star left silver.

Get some black out tape at the parts store and give it a try. It is cheap, easy to apply and easy to remove. I don't think it would look bad blacked out. Leave the star silver.

Eeww...


I don't think it would look good myself, but what do I know?

I mean hey, doesn't the Aztek have a blacked out grill?

But seriously, I don't like the look of a blacked out grill on this car, I'd be more apt to go body-colored if I just had to paint it.
