I like the TL better with the grill and emblems chrome. Looks more classy that way.

KBP Type-S!

It's so nice! Congrats dude!

Black grille looks sic if you plan on keeping the car darker, if you plan on getting silver rims, return the grille to stock.

I like the way you've carried that theme to the rear badging.

Sweet TL. Not a fan of the grill being completely blacked out like that but its not bad.

I like the black grill. maybe take off some of it though and just keep some black. like the middle bar and hood piece and trim.

KBP looks good as usual, not feeling the black front grill. Mostly because you used plastidip, and plastidip leaves a flat/matte black finish.

I think if you used gloss black vinyl for the front grill and rear it would look good. The whole car is shiny, but the plasti dip finish is a dull black and not glossy or shiny.

Agree with Beggi_e on this one... KBP looks better with a Chrome Grille.

Check this one out!

Either way though... Nice KBP ... Keep up the good work!

IMO, I think painting the chrome trim around the grill,e (the one on the hood and the lower grille) then painting everything inside black except for the Acura emblem, would look amazing.
