Default Black or silver grill inserts?

I have a black jeep with black painted rims (painting them as we speak). So would a black grill insert or silver look better? I'm thinking the silver will break up all the black, but the black would match everything else. Thoughts?

I would go with the silver to break it up a bit. Just my opinion though.

I'm all about contrast. That's why I don't care for black wheels that much. I think the silver grill inserts on a black jk would look tits.

Red. Black=no contrast (big woop / why do it); silver=chrome=lame IMHO

There's something about chrome that says it's more "street" than offroad to me, but to each their own. Red would look badass. Maybe even a dark mineral grey. Or spray bedliner on the inserts for a more rugged appearance. It all depends on the look you're going for. Looking forward to seeing pics!

A gun metal gray or charcoal color would be cool!
