I painted my grill black..
word to the wize though... rock chips are a BITCH!!!.. here is what I did to further prevent them
I have a ton of chips .. so i resanded and painted with hightemp 1500* gloss black. used a whole can.. approximately 3-4 coats worth.. Then i went and used a thick high temp epoxy clear coat i picked up from a local autobody paint shop here. I burried that grill with a whole can worth of that suff.. Ive had my grill back on for about 3 months and there is not a single chip or scratch on it.. its almost like its been powder coated..
