Not for me but not my car. If you like, embrace it.

For starters, I would remove the front plate. Yours is one of a kind for sure. Maybe adding some cool looking LED lights strategically placed within the grill itself maybe? Don't give up on it yet, it looks like a lot of work may have gone into painting it. It would be a shame to waste all of that effort.

Not my cup of tea but as long as you like it, that's all matters.

Don't like it at all, stock grill looks better. Your striping emphasises the large brake cooling intakes. Lose the plate. You asked.

Sometimes different is bad, but not this time-I think it ooks pretty good.
I get what others are saying but it does bring out the detail.
Yes, a bit like braces but what the heck- Ya didn't make them red so drive it a while
