Single Fin Grill: Chrome or Gloss Black?

Cannot for the life of me decide which 55tech single fin grill to get, chrome or gloss black, for my Arctic White C300. I've seen the chrome on white w204s and I think it looks good. I haven't seen a gloss black on a white w204 yet but I'm thinking it would look great too. If anyone has opinions or even better, pictures, that would be great. Leaning towards black but I wonder how visible the start will be and I'm curious to see it first.

I have the chrome one listed above for my metallic blue w204 and I absolutely love it... On yours though I would go gloss black with chrome star. I think this would look good especially with some 20% tints all around. Just my .02

I haven't seen one that's gloss black with a chrome star. I'll have to look again!

I bought single fin that was chrome with gloss black to start with. Then I recently wrapped all pieces aside from emblem in gloss black as well.

Before:





After:

Here's the one I was talking about. It's the "all glossy black with chrome star" color option; not shown on a car in the pics but it's an option.
