Paint my grille chrome or black or leave it alone

My current mesh grille inserts are nice and not cracked or chipped but they are a dull sliver gray color. Should I take them out and paint them chrome, black or replace them or just leave them. What was the correct finish for the year of the truck (72)


I cannot embed pics for some reason but here is a pic showing the grille a bit

Nice truck! To embed pictures, when you make a reply, click on the paper clip in the menu. That'll open a window where you can upload pictures. If you get a "token" error, you just have to resize the pic smaller.

Just now saw this, somehow missed it earlier. Agreed, the grill is as it should be.
