it makes the car look a bit different. It doesn't look bad though, perhaps if you can post pictures from further away to see better the contrast of the grille and the car

Great workmanship, but I think for your color, the silver/chrome grill looks better. For some reason it reminds of how honda used to have dx models that had black plastic side mirrors, handles, and side skirts (dont know if they still do). Makes your car look like a dx acura tsx, if that makes sense.

i think by it self, the grille might look better in silver/chrome. BUT black does not look bad at all, and if that's a theme you want to keep, i think it'll look better once you have other parts to complement it

i vote no.
there was a 4G TL posted today at the SEMA show.
it was a matte silver color, butt they wrapped the grill in a silver carbon fiber vinyl.
the contrast was absolutely SEXXXX!
I think with your color car, the black or matte black doesnt look good.
you need to find a color that gives the grill contrast between the grill and the color of the car, or better matching colors
ask some girls what color would look best

I agree with tsx kid. If you are going to paint the grille a different color, I would go with something that flows a little better. Honestly the oem works best I think. Maybe consider a different grille in general if you wanna switch things up.... Or since u plastidipped you can always experiment with different paint colors. Just spray over the plastidip and if u don't like it peel it off and try something else.

I saw this at the SEMA show out in Las Vegas this past week.
I thought this picture was interesting. It has a CT Engineering sticker on the window. The hood was never opened to see what was under the hood, whether it be something simple as an intake or maybe even a supercharger. Sadly CT Engineering wasn't at the SEMA show so I wasn't able to ask.
Btw those are Rotiform wheels and their whole line-up is effing sick. I want to see more of these wheels on 4G TLs.

^ The mufflers used appear to be CT-E mufflers, not ATLP afaik, it was most likely a one off custom exhaust by CT-E which they created and immediately destroyed the plans afterwards
tl;dr - CT-E is fucking retarded and makes no real products

TJ: PM me the picture of the wheels not really interested in rims right now because winter is coming but might consider it..
ALL: okay I think the consensus is that black is a no go... I love that TL but I want that exact silver CF finisish for the grille..links would be nice...
New Plan: Sides are staying black and blade CF matte silver...

Thanks guys

You can see all the colors there and choose which one you think will match best, I see silver and graphite being your best color options.
