I'd keep the stock, it's got the "simple" look to it

If you can pull it off quality-wise, I say go for it. It's different and doesn't look too shabby. The only thing I would change is lose the bowtie on it. I think it just shifts the balance too much. Definitely an interesting idea though.

Yeah id have to toy with it to make it look right, but if i ditched the bowtie, id have to use a rocker panel emblem for it and those wouldnt be able to fit the contour of the grill..plus i like the bowtie look!

Another thing i would like your guys' opinion on is if i should keep it gloss black or go with a flat black, keep in mind the emblem is glossy, do you think it would clash if i painted the grill flat black??
