I vote for silver. Silver looks like metal, while black can be mistaken for plastic. Maybe you can try both and see which one you like more.

silver grill looks good with silver and black. black grill looks good with white. dunno about the other colors. mix and match, I guess. try some photoshop.

I might switch mine to black once I have time to change the mesh.

Where can I get that black mesh?

Edub,
Where did you get the black mesh you used for your grill??
I have WDP with black chrome badges, and the black mesh will look really good! Thanks in advance!

I have mine painted black. Just buy the silver one and then paint it black. Make sure you clean it and prep the metal for the paint.

Yeah those holes But the front plates are back on. I got the "Hinged Gutter Guard" from Home Depot. They come in like a 5 pack instead of the rolled up stuff.

Actually, that isn't my car. It belongs to VDo.
