IDK, I think it looks good the way it is. If you wanted to start a whole blackout thing, you would have to go all the way.

Check out dipyourcar.com and look at the Plasti-dip. You can just peel it off if you don't like it. It is real easy to work with. I did the emblems on my car.

It should be fine any way you want it. As mentioned above you can try Plasti-dip "just in case" you may want to remove it. Else make sure you prep the plastic before painting.

That's what's nice about plastidip, it comes off easily.

Optionally you could buy one of the "black" grilles.
