Thinking of adding some color to front grill

I had this crazy idea the other night to add some color to my grill. I have already painted some of it black and was thinking of adding some green to it to match the wheels and the bowtie. Here is what it would look like, I left the bottom half like it sits right now to show the difference. What do you think?

Re: Thinking of adding some color to front grill

I think it'll look good either way. I like it with more green though. I would get an 84 grill like mine and paint the center bar and bowtie green. I think that would look really. Or get an 85 grill because that's what it is and paint the center bar and bowtie. But if you don't wanna out alot of money into it, I think what you've done with the extra green will look good

I like the green, it's subtle but still catches your eye.
