Good look, it's clean!

Looks clean and matches what you got going on with the rims. I'd be interested in seeing what it'd look like if that grill was color matched and the bowtie painted the satin black

thanks - i'm not in love with it, but i don't hate. kinda depends what day of the week it is...i bought a back up stock grille (black w/ chrome surround). it was a fun little project though...learned some things about painting and mastered how to remove and install the grille so all was not lost =)

color matched as in silver? then a black bowtie? that'd be interesting for sure!

yeah, color matched as in the same color as your Hoe and then a black bowtie. It just peaked my interest seeing how yours sits now. Maybe someone who's good with Photoshop could do some quick work of your existing pics to see what it'd look like first. Might end up being too much silver and make the front end look funny

I actually really like the way it sits now. I think the gold bow tie is throwing it off though. If you painted it black, or silver with a black surround, that would look great.

I also like 07burb's idea of painting the grille surround silver, and the bowtie black.

Either way it flows with the black wheels you're rockin

Thanks - I have thought about painting the bowtie the same as the body...and I do want to get some touch up paint just to have on hand. Maybe I'll pick some up at a dealer this weekend.

Totally want to do this after seeing item # 19156277 on gm parts direct. Sport Red insert with chome surround and a black bowtie, I think so! Add it to the list.

any problems with painting the crome trim piece, so the whole grill is black? did you clear coat the grill when done ? GM call's my body paint ( stealth gray metallic). NOTE it will be a black grill , with body color bowtie.
