Just got my new bumper installed last week, after a wash and a polish I decided to take her out for a photoshoot.

Nice and awesome wash job! I agree that matte black front grills would compliment the car's look nicely. I think they can be had for pretty cheap, I know Michael (acuteperformance) can get those.
