i wanted to paint my grille white, but my parents said it looked tacky....mom hit a deer a few years back and when they repaired it it came back white, they didn't like it and had it painted black....so they have seen it on the car....i dont recall seeing that...i was probaly about 8 or 9 and didn't care, and it was lonly like that for a week or so....

i showed them pictures on the forums of some White Cars with a white grille...(mainly Hans') and i think it looks good but they dont....so i guess it wont happen right now....and the car is still legaly my dads...he hasn't signed it over to me yet but basicaly its mine....in a few months when im 18 we're gona go to the DMV and it'll legaly be under my name

try the mesh grilles that others have. that will brighten it up.
and you dont have to paint it.

different years had some Grilles painted body color and some were black

Yeah I need a new grill will probably paint it body color, my deal fell thru so still have that annoying hole.

my gold SSE i used to have had body color grill so i painted the insert silver and it made it really really nice looking
