I'm having a hard time deciding between all black orrrrrrrr black grill chrome emblem.



or

 

black grill w/ chrome emblem

 

All black!!!

 

+1 on the all black

 

All black emblemless FTW, otherwise black grill w/chrome emblem gets my vote unless you start blacking out your other chrome accents.

 

Black grille, IP emblem to match the car

 

Like my man Jay Z said, "All Black Everything".

 

I hate having the emblem blended into the grille. I like it better standing out. Either chrome or color matched...preferably color matched.

 

I think black grill and chrome emblem looks better.

 

Chrome, cause it matches your fog lights better.

 

Here's a twist~The outside border of the grill black the rest chrome and the emblem black.

 

OOOOO. i was JUST about to do this to my car! Thank goodness someone posted pics~!!!!
mad props to you man

 

Same here... I also want to do something with the grille. But honestly, I don't care for either of these ideas. From these pictures, they both look like cheap, DIY spray can projects that kids do to their cars. Take note of the plastic drop-cloth in front of that first G. I bet you whoever took that picture actually painted their grille while it was still on the car. Lutz.

The OEM Midnight Grille will run anywhere north of $300, depending on the dealership... which seems like a lot of money just to go black. So I got a quote a few days ago from a local shop for painting. The plan is to paint the inside gloss black, following the little crease around the left-right-bottom of the grille perimeter, but leaving the outside area chrome, and leaving the emblem chrome.

$120 to prep the surface, mask, paint and clearcoat. (Grille off the car, obviously.)

Here's a picture of the OEM Midnight Grille on a Moonlight White G37S Sedan. Pretty classy look, IMO.

 

I went the OEM look. Had it vinyl wrapped in gloss black for $75. I choose this route because I can always peel it off if I change my mind. I didn't like the plasti-dip idea. I wasn't into the matte black and the rubbery texture.

 

Vinyl wrap is a great way to go~cheap, reversible, not prone to chips, and looks great. Love that grill Sniper
