I'm just taking a poll to see what people think would be better for my color truck: champagne/pewter

I currently have a tan/black theme: truck is tan with black wheels, black grille guard, black repainted trim, and soon to be black bumpers.
My question is would a tan colormatched grille look better than a black one, regardless of my theme?

Also, as obvious as this may be, just vote for one option. For some reason I allowed multiple answers...

HA! Thanks Baron, I'll admit I really like the GMC grilles, plus my chevy grille has a large crack near the fan shroud...so many things to buy so little money!

Color match for me as well. I like the GMC grilles too, is there a way to get the Chevy Bowtie on the GMC grille?

I've seen it be done several times and you can see some on google images but I haven't seen any for sale anywhere. Looks like they just put a bowtie insert into a GMC billet grille.

On another note, it seems color match is winning by about 100% haha. This is what I expected and its what I want to do but its gonna cost me.
What do you guys think about this: http://www.automotivetouchup.com/choosecolor/buypaint.aspx
its a paint code match in a rattle can so I wont have to worry about buying a spray gun, or at least finding our old one

Ya I'd have to throw in some primer and clear when I make the order, but I've heard good things about this company and that their colors are near perfect matches
