Either way is fine... But definitely get rid of the front plate.

one of the most simple yet effective mod... definitely changes the look of the whole front end ....
SGM color matched outer bezel with black grill and black emblem

One thing I never got around to doing on mine. This does look much better especially on the darker colors.

I only painted part of the chrome bezel, and sanded down the chrome, look like no one noticed.

Looks good both ways! I prefer the chrome, but black is good as well, especially on your black car!
