Hi guys
Your car looks really good with the painted grille

I painted one of my sets of headlight inserts black not so long ago also...it does give a slightly meaner look to the front end
Previously I had painted the inserts chrome/silver colour, which also looks nice...I just swap 'em over if I want a different look





...Dark...your car is looking better all the time
