Which Color should I paint this new grill?

So I bought a chrome billet grill (Plastic surround/true billet insert) off of Craigslist. I purchased the grill knowing I would repaint it. But I am starting to rethink the billet all together and stay honeycomb.

Thinking of painting the plastic surround black (I couldn't ever color match the white) and maybe a gunmetal grey for the insert on the billet grill.

But once I installed the billet I think I actually may like what I had even better, just repaint the honeycomb grill.

Any suggestions?

One of the two grills will be for sale soon so if anyone is interested let me know

 

Here are some photos for reference

 

i like the factory one best, i vote ditch the billet

 

I think you've got too much going on there. I say keep the stock grill and paint the toyota logo black. Let the focus be on the bumper and lights.

 

Factory one looks better. Then again I just dont like the look of billet grills on most vehicles. For the little bit that isnt blocked by the bumper and lights the original flows better IMO.

 

I think you all are right and I needed some confirmation of that. I got a smoking deal on that grill and figured it might be okay but I do believe I will retain the factory grill and just repaint that obnoxious red Toyota emblem

 

lol touching things while they are still smoking... one way ticket to getting burned..



sorry bud just teasing here

 

Factory grill is 10x better looking,paint the logo white or black.
