Grille choices - Would like your opinions

I am considering going a different route with my grille. As you can see in the pole.

I posted some pics below. Stock and a chopped one (thank you again ABQ_G35) with the grille color matched but still leaving Mt. Fuji chrome. Everyone's seen what black looks like already.

I'm having a hard time deciding what would look "best" for my G. Even my paint guy didn't have a solid "go for it" answer. Just looking for some opinions. I am leaning towards IP with the chrome grill because I haven't seen it done yet but I think it might look too "blended". Then again, it might flow....can you tell I'm undecided

Your opinions are appreciated. Thanks my peeps

Stock


White with Mt. Fuji left chrome

That was a consideration as well but then it would blend to much forsure. Or maybe not?

Thank for the opinions so far....keep them coming please

I think the white grille would be an overkill. The white and silver/chrome theme you got going is good enough. If you want to do something to it, how about doing the mt fuji in white?

I would paint it a silver color to match your wheels.

I like the white grill. But keep the emblem silver. I think it's a cleaner look.

Chris, I'd stick with the stock chrome, it provides a nice contrast to the white, and matches up to the door handles, window trim, and your polished lips.

I say paint match to the color of your car and paint MT Fuji Black!! that would look tight I have a black emblem if you would rather mess and extra one up but its already KH3 paint!

I think from far away the black Mt Fuji makes it look like the emblem is missing.

I'm in the minority here, but I like the stock color, but remove the Fuji.
