Looks nice, but from that angle, the "A" still looks chrome.

Does the black chrome kit come with any pieces for the front?

Well, chrome is...um...well chrome is chrome.
Black chrome is actually more like a dark charcoal gray that is shiny & reflective like chrome

Yep, and I used the dental floss to "cut" the adhesive that holds on the 3.2TL badge....I'll post pics from farther away tomorrow...

Black chrome is more like a smoked color....kinda like the smoked tail lights that a few people on the site have asked about...same idea.......Ever see the platinum edition GS300/ES300? ever noticed the emblems were a lil darker? those are black chromed..

Just use the same ones...I bet the pin holes are the same size..and plus your acura symbol doesn't look like a bilboard.

So, do they make the grill pieces in black chrome? If not, won't it look odd with black chrome emblem and shiny chrome frame? I dunno maybe it might look cool...
