LOOKS GREAT!!!
Do you have any good close up shots/ front pic of the grill??
the body shop I took it to said the would not warranty the mesh part of the grill because they said "In a few years the paint will probably peel off that area"- because it was such a thin area. I could understand thier point, so i wasnt going to pay them even more to pain that area black....
so as it stands, the whole grill will be body color.......
xKEITH760x, would you mind posting more pics, it will help me make up my mind

I painted mine to match, and left the mesh part black. I have a black/white thing going. Remember to put something behind the opening. Any rain or even a car wash sprays water where it wasn't able to with the stock grill. Like all over your MAF and alternator, etc. I used a translucent flourescent light cover from a 4 foot long light, cut to size. Installed a neon behind it and it looks great !
