A GRILL goes on a BBQ.
A GRILLE goes on a car.

Are these grilles made of aluminum? They look like it, if so the salt will really love them in the winter in the north here if they are not a special marine alloy.
If they are anodized, which I doubt, they cannot be polished or the protection will be removed. Keeping them shiny will be a major hassle. Cleaning between the slats will be a real headache.
Look at your engine block to see the effect of moisture on aluminum, add salt and you have a real mess.
