      Mazda 3

      Need some opinions. Well actually my GF needs opinions as shes the one who owns a 3. She ordered a new aftermarket grill and eyelids for her 3. Of course they came unpainted so they are a flat black at the moment. she wants to leave the lids black and she is considering leaving the grill black but is also considering getting it color-matched. She is leaning towards leaving it(grill) black but would like some opinions. Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure:









      Dont mind all the dirt on her car.

      I say both are fine as black. gives it more of the accent.
