I hear ya, the shiny paint does not look too good next to the dented, dull grill..LOL Thanks

That is another great option, I am going to just leave it a brushed finish for now, I'm not sure how long the grill will stay looking good, since its bare aluminum now??? Not sure if it will tarnish quickly or not. Thanks for looking.
