Default painted grill and de badge

This is my first post.

Just painted my 2004 upper grill black and removed "CROSSFIRE" from rear.
I think it looks good.

The front pics are too dark. You need to move the car out of the garage and retake the pics in sunlight.

I think it looks great.There's another thread below on a black painted grill with better pictures. Has anyone removed the lower grill altogether? How would that look? Would it affect anything mechanically? I worked with your photo and lightened it up a little and removed the lower grill best I could. What do you think?

Those lower grills keep out road debris. I wouldn't take them out. I'm going to paint mine alabaster as soon as I can get off my lazy butt! I'm also going to replace the silver stirps with chrome. Yours looks good!

The lower grill may be next.
I posted new photos out of the garage, but no sunlight today.
