I really like the simple monochrome look. You couldn't ask for an easier or more tasteful mod. Some of the Dodge and Chrysler models come with painted grills. As far as the Crossfire logo on the back I like it with or without.

Did you notice how the painted grill brings out the vertical bars in the grill that match the strakes on the hood?

I'm thinking about removing the lower grills to give the car an open scoop type look but haven't decided if that would hurt anything functionally.

I think to paint the grill properly, you should use a prime coat first and a clear coat last. How did you do yours ?
