Default Black Grill Surround on a SGM

Hey guys, i have the chance to buy a black grill surround for a great price. Do you think it would look good on my SGM. I have some black accents in my wheels and think it might work??

I think it will work. Matte black or CF would like nice on SGM for contrast. Look at Plit's car.

Kinda off topic but can you get any more by chance? If so, I would be interested in one as well.

I would sugguest you consider taking your stock grill surround and bringing it to a body shop to match your SGM. Thats what I did and think it looks a lot more clean/oem then painted black. Cost me $100 bucks.

OR! if you really want it black, just take it off and paint it black.

That way you have your choice to paint it: Flat black, metallic black, hi-gloss black, semi-gloss black, ect....

$10/$20 dollar project.

But I sill recommend doing the SGM match
