This isn't meant to sound like I'm on the defense, just how the red came about. The silver windshield surround on the black car Really jumped out at me.

When I ordered the aftermarket grill and lower pieces, I had them painted black (where they were made). The front then looked like a black hole - way too subdued for my tastes, however, chrome is too blingy in my opinion.

But thank you for your opinions.
