Default Blue Flame with Sterling Grey Accent & Platinum Grille (Opinions)

My truck is a Blue Flame '09 FX4 with the lower sterling grey accent. I've recently added the new style 20" FX rims, HD heads & tails. I am currently looking to change up the grille.
I have located within my province a 2013 platinum grille take-off. I would swap out the center, paint the center sterling grey with the blue surround. My thoughts are it compliments the wheels and lower body color? I've done a before/after Photoshop. What do you think? Yeah or neah?

I say yes! I have a Blue flame as well and adding a pop of color in the grill really make it stand out from the crowd. Go for it.

Thanks all for the positive feedback! I'm really liking that grille the more I look at it. That's my next mod.

go for it, looks great to me. sometimes people go overboard with black for an accent. my truck is solid white and want to paint lower beltline dark shadow gray. the 2 bodyshops tried to talk be out of it saying after painting the gray would have to clear coat both sides completely. i asked about after painting and clear coating the beltline, could they not just put pinstripe over the tape line. somebody might chime in with some alternatives. i am not a paint or body man.
