Your's is wrong...



This is right...



Although I agree, comparing any 4G to Fyah's is automatic fail

Front grille looks way better with matching car's color. Here is mine Bought this grille from a guy here on the forum painted by Nexson. Really nice and good paint

I agree! Well, even worse answer would be seeing this "aftermarket" grill on a 2000 Honda Accord or 2005 Maxima. It looks dirt cheap

A painted grille is probably and should be the least of your worries when it comes to resale value.. Your seats/tires/body/engine will determine resale not a small 100-200 dollar piece being painted or not

I remember going around Acura dealers in the Philly area back in 2010 and a lot of them had those awful looking cadillac style grilles already installed on TLs on the lot...
