So after almost a month at the body shop I got my new custom painted grille (the stock 06-07 coupe grille FYI) it is Alabaster Silver Metallic and Nighthawk Black Pearl to match the theme of my car. I feel the grille is much more aggressive looking and I'm pretty satisfied with the work the body shop did. I'm still waiting on them to re-paint some of my interior trim panels white and color-match my fog light covers. It's been pretty cold down here for Florida and apparently that's been slowing them down. (silly southerners...)

anyway on with the pictures...i'm beginning to like my 2MP camera phone.

thanks guys. this is from the same body shop that fixed me up after a rear ending and made the bottom of my rear lip nighthawk black pearl (no extra cost FTMFW). i must say i've never been disappointed with their work.

It looks good, but it just looks like there's something missing.  Maybe it's the gap between the top part of the grille and the hood that makes me think that.

Wow!  I love the inverse color scheme on the 'H' too!  

Really sick, thanks for sharing!

I was thinking that too. It bothers me. Since the part that the grille snaps into (upper grille cover?) is colormatched too you can see it through that little gap.  I'm thinking of stapling/gluing some sort of black rubber or soft plastic piece to the upper grille cover to black out that little gap.

it looks good, i think you should just put a black vinyl tape to get rid of the silver between the gap
