I like the stock on the silver Vs....I just can't seem to like the black grill on it. I like it on the red and black ones....Not the stealth or silver....Just my .02

I think black on stealth is fine... the stealth has black trim so black rims, grill, and lights look fine as long as the black isn't to dark.... I'm sure that gun metal gray would look the best on stealth!


Sorry for my rants... lol

I've said it before but I've seen a guy around here in a stealth V over in the seabrook area that has his rear light all smoked with stealth colormatched spray and it looks pretty cool. Can't decide if I love it or not but it def caught my eye and it's unique!

Also another vote for the stock chrome on the silver car. However I have plastidipped the front airdam and a rear spot on my bumpers. Stuff is uber easy to use and worth every penny

I don't think the chrome grill is bad either as it really took me forever to even do this but I think with the black windows and the black rims it just ties it together.

RRsv, I have to say that I LOVE the look of yours with the mesh being left alone on a raven V.
