Default Painted strakes 2 tone and rest of grille black

Painted the grille black and painted the side strakes 2 tone, the "gills" are the stock silver/dark gray and the strakes are black. I think it turned out pretty nice. I am not sure on the handles yet, I may leave them silver. The strakes were a ***** to tape up, i had to cut little slivers of tape to go in between the gills. The first time the tape pulled off some of the paint and i had to sand and repaint them. The 2nd time I ran a knife along the edge of the tape to be safe and it came right off.

Here are a few quick photos after I washed it off:
