Some photochopping ideas

I was messing with photoshop the other day and came up with a couple different ideas for a new grille. What do you guys think?
Keep in mind:
- the car is Tungsten (the lighting in the pics kinda makes it look Windveil Blue)
- it has aluminum shelby hood pins (weren't installed at the time of the original photo).
- No matter what, I want to keep the driving lights
-The polished billet grille would be something along the lines of the CDC Billet grille (9-bar)
A)


B)


C)

I've always liked the fogs hidden behind the grill look. Gives that smooth look but you still get the functionality of the fogs

I think the Black mesh looks great. Can you move the badge to the center?

I'm a bit partial to the mesh, I've got a bullitt grille with the Silver horse racing lower inserts.

So the badge with the tri-bar pony? Or the original badge?

Sharp car.

Eh, it's all easy with layers. Here's both:





I definitely like the tri-bar better but it still doesn't look quite right to me in the center

Actually, I think the tri-bar looks awesome when it is centered...especially with the black mesh!

Thanks and I've always like that hood.

I like this chop a lot, I think it looks great and it's got a very unique style Vs. everything else that is out there that seems to look the same.
