    nutshell: it depends on other cosmetic aspects of particular car (shawdowline, polished wheel lips, extent of monochrome theme, desire for contrast, etc.)

      I just painted mine metallic silver, because I hate chrome, and I've never been a big fan of blacked out ones, but I'm starting to like them more. If I don't like the silver ones on my car, I'm going to try going to black.

        The kidneys are just sipposed to be there, if you black them out they just dissapear, your car ends up looking like a nissan sentra. :(

            I like my black grill on my turbo to go with the dark/smoke look and chrome on my eta to go with my euro bumpers, chrome trim and ronals..

              I get compliments on my black grill all the time. I guess it just all depends on the look you're going for.

              Chrome kidneys give it a more 80's look.

                The chrome kidneys are the defining charastic of cars to the everyman. It tells that assclown in the slammed integra that he is infact, an assclown for blowing his money on a ricer when he could have spent half as much on twice the car.

                  from 100 yards they already look like a nissan sentra, so what does it matter?

                    Correction- The nissan sentra looks like an E30.

                      I know, japanese car companies have a long history of copying everyone else. *ducks*

                      but either way, from 100 yards it's hard for me to tell them apart. of course being near sighted doesn't help! ;)
