I kinda like the look of the black inserts. I have been trying to talk Lee into doing the same thing for a while now.

I wanted to tame some of the chrome. It looks sportier now. What you guys think of next mod of color matching the shell?

I think you should color match the grill and take the plasti dip off, but I dunno where I got that idea
