Painting your grill???

Hello,
I see many pics of Silver ML's and it seems that the Grills are painted the same color as the car. Am I seeing correctly? or is the color just similar. I ask because, instead of going out and paying 3-500 for a Silver Grill from Mercedes, I'd rather just paint my upper and lower grill with the Chrome Star..Any ideas?
Thanks

i didnt spray the grill of my 320, i got chrome/plastic 3M adhesive backing's to fit on my grill.... looks just like an ML500...

BTW.... dont buy them off ebay, 25$? jeez, i could have bought the same thing localy for 5$ per 50ft.

This is sort of off topic, but anyone know of a place to buy the AMG grill with the silver honeycomb and everything? I found it at one site and it was something like $275.. Any better places?

Would a paint job look the same?

i know what you're talking about, i found the same thing on ebay, just go on ebay.com, and type in something like "m class grill". or "m class chrome"... and you'll find a bunch of results of chrome grilles and things of that sort.
