thinking about painting grille

i have a 69 and am thinking of painting inner grille. anybody have pics of any painted other than black? use a flat or gloss black? i was thinking silver or grey to maybe blend in close to grille shell?i also need to paint headlight bezels is i go with silver/grey. this is a current pic will try to get more later if I get my wheel bearing issue resolved. it looks worse in person than this pic.

Mine was already silver.
JMO, but whatever you do, leave the headlight bezels black. They look a lot better that way on the 69/70's.
