Sorry, another grille question...

Ok a 12 with the previous style grille in bright finish. I see a nice matte finish one at 55tech(these are the go to guys, right)? But what do i do about replacing the small wreath and laurel with a black one ? I think it would look wrong if i put thd silver one back in it...suggestions, help, pix? Thanks in advance...

Or does everyone think the updated 14 style is better?

Looks better than OEM but it kinda looks too much like a C class grill. But as long as you like it I can go to hell!
