I think painting the grill in your case would look great. Lip looks awesome.

Looks good!
Im bored at work so I decided to photoshop your grill for you.
Here is what your grill would look like color matched

and here is what it would look like blacked out

I think color matched looks sicker.

Color matched looks really good. I think the front lip is probably the single best aesthetic mod on a 7th gen.

looks sick, grill would have to be gloss though, and not flat.
FML why don't they have this for the sedan!

yeah, but it doesn't look like that!

that's because that lip up there is the 06-07.. the ones that have been modded to the sedan are the 03-05 hfp lips.

Dont paint the "H" though; wear it with pride!

Love the H but my cousin keeps telling me to get rid of it

Don't paint the emblem it will look like shit. You need a little contrast.

When we did the 06-07 conversion on Gen's coupe we had the shop color-match the grille. I think it looks much better, do iiiiiiit! And keep the H chrome, color-matched will look like someone stole it.
