I like the black bars but I would leave the chrome strips, again it's down to personal opinion.

Rather leave the chrome strips, this looks too black and doesn't show as much attention to the star as it otherwise could.

The front end on the 300/350 sports is one of my favorite things on the exterior, I would not black it out. However I do not like the front end on the Luxury sedan model.

I think LID AVG ended up really doing that I have 2 photos of the car that doesn't look like its been photo shopped

Black tend to dilute the lines and contour of the car, thats one of the reasons why black looks better on some cars because you get a sleek body effect.
as the seams of the car and the body blends in.

IMO I think its better either to leave the grille as is, defining the lines of the grille. it gives a stronger fierce look.

or leaving the chrome wings
giving a definition of lines continuing flow from the window sill, hood seam line, eye line to chrome grille.

I've attached a few photos so you can contrast and compare the differences.
they all have different expressions. different personalities. so the bottom line is. whatever style that suits you.
