How would it look...

I've got an altezza grille that I'm gonna take to get painted within the next week or so. My car is a white coupe, and I originally planned on just having the outer lip painted white to match the car. Then I had two other ideas... do you guys think it'd look cool if I got the entire thing painted white, then had just the mesh part sprayed with flip-flop paint? Or maybe the lip painted white, the mesh painted black, then flip-flop on the mesh part?

I'm kinda leaning towards the second one (white/black with candy in the middle) if it wouldn't cost too much and would look cool. What do you guys think?

White lip, black mesh would look best (IMO)
As far as the flip flop stuff, I have no idea what you are talking about!

Flip-flop = candy/color changing paint. The kind that looks different from different angles.

It's your car bro, but I don't think the flip flop paint would look good on a white car.

i think all white would look pretty cool, depends though if your headlights, rims, etc are black/dark then leaving the middle black would look better.
