Blue and green are the only colors I would say you should definately paint the grille on. So my vote goes to; paint it. Dark blue and black do not look good together. They are too close to look nice.

MATCH color it!! use your touch up paint that comes from the dealer and bring it to the bodyshop
keeping it black makes it look cheap
