Default grille color opnion

so heres the thing..
I'm not a big chrome fan, my h3 is white and other than the grille has all black trim. I've seen only one white on white but was kida a bad pic and not sure how I like it. I've thought about a black painted grille but not sure how it will look against the textured bumper. I've seen pics of the line-x grilles for sale on here but have yet to see one installed.
so I'm curious what you guys think.
should a keep the chrome? go body color white? painted black? or line x?
also if any one has pics of any of the above, feel free to share.

I would be very weary about any painted grille as the stone chips in my chrome one are bad enough I cant imagine how bad they would be if it was painted, I would also worry about paint peeling off using high pressure hose to get the bugs off.

I would suggest black, but you have to paint it correctly to avoid rock chips. Look at the photo threads on here. I know I've seen a white with black grill and it looked way better than the chrome.

I had a few customers have a H3 grille lineX'd. It looks real good on white and black.

Default Grille color

I, too, am not a fan of chrome . . .
It is perfect for hod rods and motorcycles, but not a ideal fit for an off road vehicle
Body color grilles do look very good
I went with a factory black grille to match most of the other black plastic parts on these trucks
A black grille would be a strong contrast to the white vehicle
A white grille seems logical
