Yeah if u were going to get the satin chrome, you are better off getting both top and bottom grills. If u just want the bottom, just get the black for bottom IMO.Kaine Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/22304-silver-or-black-grill/#findComment-330014 Share on other sites More sharing options...
