I think I'll look good.

So, I take it that you purchased that Euro Headlight set?

those are a few of the best mods to do to the car to update its looka nd improve your lighting.

IT will look good.

The black grill insert really does wonders for the look of the front fo the car.

My suggestion would be to paint it with bumper and trim paint that is flexible, and use a flex primer and flex clear coat on it.

Make sure you clean that insert really well before painting, and take your time to do it right, don't lay on the coats too thick, light even coats and many of them will yield the best results.

The reason I suggest the flexible primer, paint and clear coat, is that it will hold up longer in the end, it will not chip as easily from road debris.
