Grille: Not sure if painting it VR and leaving bits chrome is too much Red up front, was thinking of blacking out the grille and leaving emblem chrome, or getting the T-Rex/Stillen grill and painting the non-mesh VR. I think the grille may look too Camry-ish painted to match?

Spoiler: Yup, factory

I'd like to think it reminds people more of the Vette than the Fit, but yeah I was trying to get the same effect as the Vette, making it look like it could have came this way from the factory..

Thanks for all the compliments folks.

I think it turned out well because his wheels are chrome too.

What colors are your wheels?

PS. IP is the hardest to match.

Not for long! Chromies are coming off the car this weekend hopefully, assuming my XIX's get here by Saturday; I think Black w/ polished lip will still leave enough shiny bits to keep things lookin good.
