Default I've been thinking about this and here's my final opinion on the whole blackout thing

I don't really like chrome, but I think that it does look kinda cool in small doses, only if it's well done though.

I wanted to black out my grilles and finally decided that I'm not going to until I can get my hands on some S4 Ecodes. I think that overall the whole face of the car with the chrome in the headlights, and the 2 grille rings looks better than just having the chrome in the headlights.

Ultimately I think that the face of the car would look best with a blackout grill set and s4 ecodes, but until someone can tell me where there are s4 ecodes available I'm going to wait on the blackout grilles.
