I think it looks good, but a 2005+ grill with fewer slats would have been ideal.

I think you need a flat hood badge and then you're set! it looks great with the wheels!

I think it looks pretty nice. I wonder how it would've looked if you had painted only the slats black and had left the outside chrome. It would've matched the rims perfectly.

Looks sweet. Just did my grille too. Someone needs to make a flat badge that is black with the silver star like the valve stems to complete the black look.
