lol i know man, this is like the hardest decision:

1) Matte Blk grille, and vents?

2) Semi Gloss Blk grille, and vents?

3) Do not paint the vents blk (as shown in my original picture)

 

If I were you.....I would gloss the grille and gloss the vents as well assuming you would paint the vents. the vents painted give the front bumper a more agressive look to it, more attitude than without the paint. and the gloss seams to just flow with the rest of the car better being as everything else has a shine to it. I have a DG and have been thinkin about painting my vents to.

 

If you are going to paint the vents black, paint them matte, regardless of the color of the grill. A gloss black vent wouldn't look great.

 

here u are broo.. hope it helps.

 

damn NIsmo bumper is HOT!

 

wow i wanna see it in person

 

um yeah sfg i would say that gloss vents look pretty good, imo.

 

Satin black is a very close match to the OEM plastic/rubber trim, so it's a natural choice for similar items. It works great for the grills. As for the vent surrounds, that's your call. Black or body color result in fairly different looks. You just need to decide which type of look you're going for.

I didn't black-out the vent surrounds because I wanted a little smoother look and I felt the increased vent size was already large enough for me without having to visually exagerate it.
