His cheese graters are black.  The others are grey. Just more choices they both look good

Yes I too have the same dilemma,all black or  argent  , for me I have 2 grilles and have one that is more standard and one that I will paint , not sure which one I will use but ,options are nice, I have this pic 

with argent

[shoooter]

I'm going to go with black and argent.  Cheese graters could be Black or argent not sure.

Hey Shoooter, Paint the cheese graters all Satin Black and then use a chrome paint pen and paint the front edge only of the horizontal bars, this is how they are meant to be and look really good when done.

Hey Shooter, Paint the cheese graters flat dull aluminum from the front side, then place front down on a flat surface and spray them flat black....When dry, the front of the bars will be silver and the rest black with no sharp edges.

Alan is the dull aluminum spray paint a different colour than what the inserts are painted? Do you have a brand you use?
So main grill Black,  inserts argent, cheese graters dull aluminum the Black from the back? Is the lower grille valance Black too?

[shoooter]

Does the lower grill valance insert get painted body colour or silver? Grille will be painted Black with silver.

Black

My 71 grille will be black and plan to do the same thing with my valance.
Hopefully I finish up this weekend on the grille.
