Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. However, neither of those provides much protection for the radiator or condenser coils. That's why I did this:
If you stay with a black grille there are black screens you can use. |

That's all I've got. I took apart the stock grilles, which are made of two pieces that snap together. I cut off the vertical slats with a multi cutter, put the two pieces back together, cut the aluminum mesh to size, glued it to the inside of the grille with silicone adhesive. On the bottom section I cut the mesh to size, wrapped the edges with this:

Matte. Black cars need contrast.

If you like the slats, I imagine you could use the plastic mesh-like products and attach that behind the slats. What do you think, Is that possible?
