I am going for a bullet look btw
I bought the upper and lower black from SS inserts & installing this weekend.
Will post the pics and though I don't have a black car, the front is partially black.

Great job. Are you going to put on the lower grille too?

Here's a picture of mine (before the side pieces). Looks so much better than the plastic honeycomb.

I am, I just don't know when I will get some more spare money. I bought that with my tax return. I worked from august to december last year part time, so it wasn't that much. Hopefully soon though.
