Since you don't live in a anit-laser-jammer state, I'd hold off on the screens and get the M27 or M47... Those are hard to hide with the screens in place.

Both other than that, the sliver screens look the best IMO.

On silver I like black grills. There's not enough contrast between the car and the grills the other way. Painting mine black on my QS Z is on my to-do list

Default Grill color

Just bought an 06 Z51 vette and am having the same thoughts. Car is red and I am thinking silver or chrome grill.

I am selling my baby, a 98 Z28 convertible and it is a silver. I installed a silver grilletech grill in it. It is nice but Very subtle. I installed blacked out headlights and took the grill out and painted it black. Much better looking IMO.

I'm not a fan at all of grills on C6's. I like it open...or with an intercooler
