Ok guys, im wondering... why not gt the shadowline trim powdercoat black instead of haivng to buy a whole new one?

would a black kidney grill look ugly or bad on a monaco blue car?

Just get it color match painted (monaco blue), like the one Quad M sells.

LOL! No man, he meant the grill. Just buy the shadowline trim. In order to powdercoat it, you're going to have to take it off. And what happens if it chips? Doesn't make sense. The parts are cheap. Go buy it and stop asking too many questions.
