Small change to the appearance

I wasn't too keen on the black grill surround with the window surrounds being silver, they didn't match so I bought a grill from Mike on here and fitted it, I was going to de-tango it but can't find the silver bulbs I bought that flash orange. The de-tango mod will have to wait now, I was going to black out the chrome and silver in the lights too but not sure now the silver surround is fitted.

From that angle I think all black looks better but when at a slight angle where you can see the window surrounds which are Alu too then this is the right colour grille. I had alu windows with black grille for years and it used to bug the hell out of me. I ended up going the other way though and making the windows black.
Do get round to detangoing it though, it makes a huge difference in my opinion.

I also think chrome rings looks odd on an all black grille but look right on an alu grille.
