i always wondered about this myself. before i put mine on my car, i thought the bezel would look awful but now i think it sets it off from the rest. its juuuuust enough silver on my black beauty and i always get people asking what kind of mustang it is because of it

I agree, I think the silver helps define the grille and on a black car it breaks it up and keeps the grille from blending in with the rest of the car.

Yeah, I am curious as well. I have been considering a bullit grill for some time and always thought it would need to be blacked out somehow.

On a black pony, chrome /silver always looks good..

On my yellow...I stick with chrome wheels but everything else is yellow or black.

If I can get my hands on a decently priced Bullitt grille sometime, I will be painting that piece before it gets put on. I've got a color scheme going on here and can't let a sliver throw it off!
