Honestly, I wouldn't even know where to start doing it myself. I suppose if there was a DIY that shows how to do it I might have better luck.
So my only option is to shop around and see where I can get it done I guess. Shouldn't be more than $100 or so I would think? Although, I have no idea how expensive/cheap it is to get paint and stuff.

Hey AZN are there any vendors on ebay or elsewhere that sell that exact same grille? I know you modded your original, but perhaps there is something like that for after market? I'd much rather just buy that because I would like my stock as well and just can't be bothered with the whole painting thing. Seems way too complicated.

For certain model years, the black grille was a factory option. I didn't find that out until I was ordering my car. The option wasn't shown on the website. It adds a nice look, especially if you have a lighter colored car.

I've seen some of these same type grill do not match the hood correctly. If you look at the image you quoted, there are gaps on the top left and right edge of the grill where the grill meets the hood. I've seen one in person and to me it looks really bad. So just be weary and make sure wherever you buy from has actual image of their grill installed on an car.
