Question should i change my grill?

hey guys im debating changing my grill. i painted my factory grill gloss black and cleared it. its compleatly smoth so it dont have the grity finish like it was new.i have ss inserts front and rear and im thinking about geting a black billet grill and puting a old style emblem like the gmmg cars. what do you guys think? this id the best pic i have of the grill. the second pic is before the ss inserts.

give me a better pic with the "camaro" letters installed and I will give a good judgement, I am partial to painted stock grilles, only because thats what I did too,,,,,,,,those pics suck.

oh and if you do change the grille, dont get a billet, those things are so cheap looking! at least go with a west wings grile, or black slp grille, or maybe slp grille painted body color.....

I think it looks good black like that with the inserts or if your just bored with it get the slp grille with the bow tie or the black billet; either will look good just leave it black, don't care for much for the look of matching grilles.

It somehow matches the wheels and makes it more noticeable.

billet grille on ebay for 45 dollars, if you didnt like it you could take it off and resell it, or maybe back and fourth between the two when you need a change.

Keep the stocker with the fill ins. Looks much better than a billet grill.
