Are you going to go along with your poll and black out the lower grill? I think you should leave it chrome. Car looks perfect in that front shot ^.

IMO the car is hella black already... add some more contrast, leave it chrome. even though it does look nice black...but i would leave it chrome.

Pics are awesome... I think the lower grill chrome is nice, really helps break up the black. Also there's nothing classier than a black and chrome car IMO! Also Go Giants!! #worldchamps

Probably just the vertical parts so it matches the Kazz at the moment. Thanks btw

Been away from the computer for a few days, but man am I glad I stumbled upon this thread. The IS looks excellent as always! I''m sure whichever direction you go with the grille will look good, I trust your judgement

Love this shot, too, by the way

Just painted the vertical slats black to match the Kazz. Horizontal is still chrome. Waiting to see if time changes my mind
