Left mine all black, I put clear coat over it. My car is red so straight black looks good with mine I wouldn't know what it would look like with a silver vic. IMO painting the whole grill looks kinda tacky.

I have an altezza grill, and i have teh mesh body matched. I have eternal blue paint though, so its already fairly dark of a color to start, I dont think it looks tacky at all, but as for a silver, I think that the mesh staying black with a clear coat ofer it would look better than all silver. Havent seen a silver one done any other way. Maybe go for all silver and be different? Its going to cost the same to paitn teh wole thing as it is to jsut do the trim.
