OK, now I've had a chance to see it.
My opinion is to shadowline the car and black out the grille. But at least your grille treatment is consistent with the chrome trim on your ride.

Looks great. Great job. I'd prefer matte black, but that's just me.

You don't get any love for chrome around here. But do whatever you want as long as you're happy, it's your car and money anyway.
