can you still get an aftermarket grille even if you have the radar cruise control? (has the different front emblem)

What part is painted, the outer frame only? or will the mesh be painted also? Would it be possible to see what a painted one looks like? Don't most ppl just go with a black one? Im curious to see what a painted on looks like installed on a ISx50

imaputz cleared it up for me.

Looking at some pictures around these forums, I figured that the mesh will be black, and the outer frame will be color matched.

But isn't the OEM grille's frame just black?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong though, I'd like to be a 100% sure too.

this is what i wanted to know. the mesh and it's attached frame are usually black. I havent seen anyone color match it. Don't most people color match the chrome frame?

Yeah, people usually match the chrome trim if they're going to mod their grille.

But I think color matching the inner thingy is ugly .

I'm probably going with black.
