To answer your questions: The best deal, especially since your in SoCal, on the Mtech kit and grilles is Trinity Autosport (contact members Nerweezy or TrinityAutosport), for the wheels? It will be harder to find OEM black wheels since none came that way from the factory. Better to get some and have them powder coated if you want OEM. I personally prefer 20" wheels since they fill the wheel wells better and yes, you'll have a gap with 19" wheels. It won't be a huge gap, but there will be one. Good luck

Powdercoating is always an easy solution and there's a lot of shades to choose from.
