Worked with Brian, from Nexations Creations™on DA.net to find the best look for my silver and black theme. And I think it came out great.

I ran something similar about a year ago for a few days... I hope you didn't get killed on the pricing. Nexon tends to be expensive. I bought mine painted at a shop for 35.

Yea the Emblem wasnt that bad thats pretty much the same price. But if you see the progress pics, he put alot of work into it. *But the actual grill used to be Black. So he used the same paint as the car. Im very happy with how it came out.

Not bad.  My only problem with color matched stuff is that it takes away from the definition of the grille.  I'm still happy with my murdered out grille with the flat black and gloss black for contrast.  Like Mike said, I hope Brian didn't rape you on the price.

What I'm saying is I had the grill silver (painted in a body shop), and paid less than $50. What did he charge you?

Hmmm, this is just an idea but, what if you had the inside part of the logo area painted the same silver color? That way you could actually see the H logo instead of just a black square, lol.

I thought about that, just wasnt sure how It would come out. Maybe I can send it back and have him do that for me. It would def set it off a little better. I wanted to kind of hide the Emblem though, due to the whole Black and silver theme.
But i hear you though that would finish it off nicely

Oh no not at all, I told him what I had to work with and he was pretty reasonable. Progress Pics and all. I actually like the way it looks, but now im thinking It would look sick with the silver included in the back of the emblem.

i dig it - looks good with the contrast.  i actually like how the back lining of the "H" is dark.  more subtle.
