Default Advise on my grill

I'm thinking about painting the honeycomb part of my grill red or black? Thoughts? What product would be the best to accomplish that?
Thanks

Sweet! Now if it were my truck, I would get the same grey thats on the bottom and paint the honeycomb and the flares all the same grey.

Automotivetouchup.com has great prices on aerosol cans. http://www.automotivetouchup.com/

Thanks summers! Do you think that paint will play well with plastic?

Thats up to you. Black housing headlights are around $70 a pair on ebay. I have them. Just seal the lens to housing gap with extra silicone or RTV before installing and they will serve you well.
