Covering chrome strip
Okay, I know this has been covered before, but what is the best way to cover the chrome strip on the front of the grill?

...no more braces! 
Overall, a $23 well spent. It is a black metallic vinyl that is just a tiny bit transparent and matches the Carbon Flash Metallic grille very closely. The chrome grille trim was the one design aspect I did not like about the car. Installation was straight forward, they sent two vinyl strips that you have to massage and stretch to fit perfectly, them trim the excess with a razor blade. My craftsmanship isn't factory or professional quality, but I'm happy with how it turned out.
