Yeah gloss black or matte black would work just fine

I saw someone posted his C on this forum not too long ago where he blacked out his grille but painted the chrome pieces including the emblem chrome piece with arctic white (body color)... looks real good

Gotcha... gloss or matte black to match your Carlsson lip

You can't go wrong with either gloss or matte... If you go with gloss it will blend in nicely with your lip but if you go with matte it will still match your mesh grille on the bumper... decisions... decisions

I think he means he's getting the grill from the luxury models to put on his sports one.




Something like that above. Its in matte black however. Here's the rest of the pictures from an old thread.
