I was thinking of doing the with my matt black grill but I dnt think it will look as good.

I think it will look awesome on your car man. The gloss black will match your body color and bring the refiness back.

BTW, Poot1873...Thanks for the part numbers !

I didn't realize the grills came apart.
Assuming that is correct, you used the new frames and your stock centers.
Is that right?

I think it looks awesome. I want to do the same thing to my car.

Yeah the slats are held on with clips and very easy to switch, the chrome slats were my original one's.
