i think it would look better black... too much chrome up front but its all personal opinion
it may be okay if the surround was painted body color.

I have the same grille addition, but have a Sport, so I don't have as much chrome as you do. Since I know that the mesh is not anchored at all the wire ends, I can see them. Therefore, I have thought of using some sort of caulking to hide the loose ends. I haven't looked, but probably one could find some black stuff to carefully squirt on by going to Lowes or Home Depot. What do you think?

I have said it before:D ,... just hunt down a 2 piece 2nd gen grill and remove the center and replace it with the mesh. That will really be the only presentable way.

Its creative. Looks good. I like it. The "chrome" thing is a personal choice thing. As long has you like. It all good.

between the license plate, the front bumper, and the grille there's way too much chrome. I would say paint the grille to match the car.

Yeah black would look sick as well. I just barely took my black mesh off, I'm going to have it painted with the car when I get the LSE kit installed. Right now I have my blacked out McLaren on so I can sand the black off of the pieces for the mesh grille.
