Matt, go ahead and black it out. If you don't like it, I'll trade you. Was taking this route anyway, so you better hurry.

Or we could just do yours, since you were planning on it...and see how it comes out. :)

I'd leave it chrome but that's because I don't mind a little bit of chrome. lol Black would probably look good and match with the lip though.

What about colour matched?

Thinking about doing this as well to my black R. Would basic matte black paint do the job or should something specific be used? I personally think your grill blacked out would look good and would compliment the lip.

I wouldn't do it.

The reason it looks so good on that black C70 is because the car itself is black. On yours, it would just stick out like a sore thumb. Personally, if I had your car and were in the same position, I would paint the surround silver to eliminate the chrome, and match the car.

Example.

I've been toying with the idea of doing mine in saffron.
