Plasti the grill, it'll be a nice change. If you get tired of it, just peel it off

If you're on a budget PD it, if not paint it OB.

I think it looks better painted 2 match but it's a big difference in price.

If u don't like the PD, peel it off. U get it painted and don't like it you wasted a lot more $.

if your planning to do wheel, drop, front spoiler, and headlights, it'll look good for sure. if not, sometimes... its better to leave it as it is.

u have a pic of yours?

Agreed. Everything doesn't need to be color matched. Also depends on what type/color of wheels you plan on putting on as well.

Just found this little tid bit of info from plasti dips website Is there any product on the market that can be applied over Plasti Dip® to provide a glossy finish?
Our Perfomix® Brand F-799 Top Coat will provide a glossy finish and is currently available in 5 gallons and 50 gallon drums.

On a black car I prefer it to be colormatched to the body but on any other color Plastidip works great and looks great imo.

I am in the same boat as the OP. I think I will for sure PD the rear mt fuji and G35x badges. But as far as front goes I dont know how i feel about the matte black grill on gloss black vehicle with the rest of the chrome on the V36 sedan.
