Black Grille?
I did some ghetto mark up using electrical tap to see how I like it, please help me decide.

Thanks!

That makes sense, but I think you will get a bunch of replies to do it all black, it is mod central in here...but I love the way it flows with the lights in the stock config...good luck.

all black makes it look like the star is floating, not really feeling it, maybe if the star was black as well, dont like option 2 at all, and im guessing your bored with stock, so maybe option 1?

Option 1...

??? Did you explore blacking out the chrome border only? Leaving the fins & star chrome. I don't know, that could look weird as well, like the star has wings and is flying, but it's another option.
