ECS tuning has the black out grill for our car. how many people would buy this or rather paint the grill. I think i want to buy the grill.

Painting them doesn't hold up against rock chips as well.

I think its chrome surrounds with black insides and black filler. Not black trim.

Guys, there is nothing wrong with painting grills and trim pieces-DIY. I have done so myself many times. And yes there will be rock chips. So what....
I have found this stuff from Duplicolor to be the shlt !!!
It's a flexible LACQUER based material that goes on super nicely. Drys in minutes. But the best part about it is it touches up unbelievably well.
I have used on trim, wheels, and motorcycle tanks and fenders. It goes on shiny but cures to a mat finish and is super tuff.
My recommendation...try it, you will not be disappointed. All the best, Haya....

Hmm, this picture shows a silver cap but the paint is in fact black.
