Default Question: Blacked out grill or not. I have the grill out at the moment

as I am painting the horizontal and vertical slats satin black. I have seen blacked out fronts but can not decide if I want to do the same.

What is everyone's thoughts?

Not a fan of the blacked out look, but that's just me...

Default I'm a fan, wish I had my pics

I painted my surround and rings the "anthrecite" color of the grill, got a really good match in color. It's on a black car so it's dark, but I still have a little color contrast.

I'd just paint the surround and rings instead of the whole grill. I can find the paint that I used and e-mail you if you want. I have pics too, just not here.

Thanks for the comments all. I decided to stay with the "stock" look except my slats are now black
