A black grille on a light car will either accentuate what you've already done, or make it look boring as hell. Not sure what it will do to yours, so good luck! Maybe a spare grille could be used instead. That way you can go back to stock if you don't like it.
The headlights? It could be very sweet... just make sure you use a spare set! I'm doing something similar (maybe even this weekend) and I'll be using a spare set of headlights for the project. The painting is a lot of prep time, but if you've taken your time and have a steady hand... you'll come out ahead.

Just out of sheer curiousity, where could i get a "spare" set without buying brand new from the dealers???
Where did you get yours from, and what did you pay for them? If you don't mind me asking

Got my headlights when Jarrod (Focis8nt) sold me his stockers. Think I paid 100 for the pair, shipped. Got a feeling he did me a favour on the price, and they shipped with the Eurolite H4s I'm running right now.
Your best bet is to vulture the scrapyards, look for side/rear impact cars and pray the light covers survived.
