I agree - just paint the trim. I saw zzzzv's ride a while back and asked him about it and then had it done too. It looks very clean. I had my wing and mirrors painted at the same time as the grille, and was only an extra $30-40 dollars. Might be slightly higher if that is the only thing being painted?
