Ok, I have my car in the body shop gettting ready to paint. I have taken my aftermarket bumper off and am putting my factory bumper back on. I want to paint my car back a House of Kolors Kandy Burgandy, but the body shop guy said that it would be better to go with a base coat, clear coat combo to save me trouble in the future if I ever had an bump up. The Kandy is hard to match.

I need your opinion on whether you think I should go back with the Kandy or go by what he said. I also would like to know if you all think I should go with chrome rims with my factory grill or black rims (like str8304) with my factory grill. The other option is chrom with an aftermarket grill or black with an aftermarket grill. All opinions are greatly appreciated. Hope I didn't overwhelm you with all the options. By the way if anyone has suggestions for an aftermarket grill, let me know. Thanks in advance. The following link is a link to what my car looks like now. Thanks.

Will a VR4 grill fit on a USDM front bumper with little or no modifications?
