Painted Grill
With the red seat accents, I keep looking at the plastic grill and thinking it might look good in red. It might be too much, but with the Ultramarine (and I think most colors aside from red), it might look pretty good. Anyone have the photoshop skillz to tell me if I'm right or wrong?

well there is the big main grill, but the turn signals have smaller grills on them where the fog lights would be. maybe that's what he's referring to. or maybe he's referring to all of it.

Yeah, I can't decide. It's actually more subtle than I would have expected. Not sure if it's worth the effort.

Personally. I think super tacky/yuck/please don't do it... but I can't stop you from doing it...
I will forever cringe when I see these on the road...
