Default Front grill strip

Is anyone painting their front grill strip to match their car color? Seen a picture of it? Probably doesn't need it on black or silver, but I think it would look sweet on Moro Blue. Also, anyone paint their mirrors, or have them swapped out for A4 mirrors matching car color? It's fun to be a little different from the A, but the engine does that...

Default I think it still looks better in black than the grey plastic...

Champion Motors in Pompano Beach FL offered it to any one getting a new car there. I saw it on a yellow, blue, and silver (?) car and it really makes the car look totally different. That's what sold me on getting it for mine.

Paint the grille surround as well.

Looks great. Did you have to paint it, or did it come like that? I'm picking up an 06 Moro Blue in early March, and want to see if i can get them to fix the grill for me...
