Default Grille

Does anyone know how different a brushed billet grille looks from a polished one? I am looking at the Carriage Works billet grille for my black 99 f150. Anyone got any opinions?

For a polished look the billet grill is covered in a black powdercoat. Then, the front edge goes through seven different cleaning and polishing stages. This results in a billet grille that sparkles with a glossy, chrome-like shine.

Brushed billet grilles start out with the whole grille coated in black powdercoat. Then, the leading edge (the front) of the billet grill is scuffed to an industrial-looking, raw metal finish.

I like the polished
