Black TA & FMIC

So I'v done some searching around on this topic for 700-800hp ls1's. I dont like the idea of cutting up the front end but to get numbers like that its really unavoidable. I'm wondering if anyone has tossed around the idea of setting up some kind of black grill in front of the intercooler to improve the looks. Does anyone have any pics of a setup like this?

Or the IC can be lightly painted with Eastwood Radiator Paint. Mine's done like that for stealth...

Not on a Camaro, though.
