Black grille for sedan?

I'm thinking about paint the sides of the grille border black, so only the very top and bottom edges are chrome (similar to coupe sport grille).
Anyone else try or see this??

I do care about quality and am entirely satisfied with the results. A professional job might look a little better, but it would not, could not, be a night and day difference.
Thanks! It is a night and day difference.
No one should be discouraged from trying any of the methods discussed in this and other threads. There is virtually no cost or skill barrier to entry, and if it turns out poorly, then just strip it and try again or spend a few hundred bucks for a professional job.

I considered just about everything for the longest time with regard to the front grille... vinyl wrap, plastidip, rattle-can, body-shop, etc. Finally left the grille at a local paint shop for a week, and they did a custom job. Body color on the perimeter, gloss black metallic on the slats, clear-coated. For me, it was totally worth the cost and effort.
That's my recommendation.

well of course ur gonna say that there isnt much of a difference cuz u dipped ur grill. but if u actually compared a painted grill that was painted using the proper methods/equipment to a dipped grill there will be a huge difference! but then again its ur car and u do wat u want to it.
