Paint the Rad. with bodyKit?
I got my bodykit and took it to the bodyshop,
they asked me if I wanted the rad painted black as well so it wont show.
should I do this? or leave it as silver?
I am leaving the grill inserts silver btw

Did you not tell me earlier that they were only going to paint the outside and leave the grill alone?

Don't paint it...the color matches your car and it'd look gay anyway
