I am all about being diferent even if its a slightly diferent thing I do, so heres something I thought some of you might be interested, I cut out the chrome section of the stock grill part and blacked out the actual grill's.

The reason for this was I wanted the head lights section to stand out more then it did with the chrome strip going across.

before.....

and after....

some of you prob wont like it, some will.

I like it!
Nothing wrong with daring to be different, in fact that's how I live my life!

That looks cool. The lights really stand out now.

I like it too very much but

if you put back the just chevy logo in the midle of the black it would look awsome
look very empty now

You have anymore shots? Side angles, etc? Looks kind of cool though :bravo:

I like the grill like that.
The primary reason I went with Safari instead of Astro was the grille. I didn't like the chrome strip all the way across the middle.

leave the chrome strip on, but cut out the upper and lower grill,,, or black them out...

That's exactly how I felt when I painted my grille black. I ended up painting the bowtie toupe (my 2nd interior color) and glued it on.

Here is a picture of mine without the bowtie.

Now on yours I really like the little bit of chrome on the ends with the composite headlights. That really looks nice.
