Grill surround.

I've had this grill in the basement for a while and decided to throw it on her car and ask her what to do with it (I was thinking she would tell me to sell it). To my surprise, she likes the look a lot more than the stock grill. Now we have to make some decisions. The decisions in the long run include headlight color, and wheel combination.

On to the grill surround. What color should it be. The mesh will be sprayed with gloss black to match the lower grills. The center support bar will be removed and everything behind the grill will be blacked out.

1. Gloss Black. This was my original thought but a lot of friends have picked red. I thought black would be a no brainer but others think differently.

2. Red. I fear this will make the grill look to small and be too much red, but she thinks it should be red and so do a few guys at my painters.

3. Black chrome. This opens up a Pandora's box. I would have to continue the theme in black chrome headlights. Maybe black chrome on the wheels somehow. How do I go about doing the black chrome... This could be a big mess, but could look really good. This is an easy one to pick when it's not your time or money.

Here it is on the car.







Post your thoughts please.

 

My vote is black chrome.. Different and i think it would look sick..

Voted for Gloss Black.

You already have a Black Roof/Lower Vents/Rear Valence (I think)

Would look great with black headlights too IMO

 

I wonder if someone could photoshop it for you?

 

I would ay matte black if that was an option but iff not then gloss

 

Gloss def.

 

Yeah, I'm staying away from matte black. It's not my thing.



However, the rear valence is matte black but that's because I want it to blend in rather than get your attention.

 

try getting someone to photoshop each color and pick the one you like best

edit: my vote goes for black chrome!

 

i vote red.

when its black it just looks like a huge gaping hole.

 

i don't think red would look good.. it'll make the grill look too small imo... give black chrome a try. I think it'd look good.

 

I think Gloss Black aswell

 

^ +1 for gloss black

 

Red and Black are easy to try. If it doesn't look right then just repaint. Black chrome however is a lot bigger deal. Even with the spray on chrome.

 

Gloss black will match is simple and will still look sick gl

 

I vote for Gloss Black,

Dude dont mess your grill just paint is gloss black and end of the story
red will look like a toy + rice
