I'd say put the stocker back on... I'm going to have the area filled on mine. But, mine is black and I think the over-all look would be different with your silver frost. With the black, I feel it can stand on it's own; kinda gives that whole mean look. With silver frost, I think the front end would be missing something; needs that contrast.
Of course, this is just my thoughts; I'm sure plenty of people feel totally opposite of me.
