If the chrome has faded I take your side, but I think the chrome looks good. It's a grill not a body panel. Chrom grills date back to the beginning of cars. All grills were chrome, it's part of being a car. Aerodynamically speaking, some cars have such lines to warrant a grill painted to the same color of the car, but the pre-87 do not have those lines. There's not enough transition from the grill to the hood. Painting pre-87 grills another color than grey or chroming makes it look stupid; like someon got bored w/ a spray can.
I think the 87 and on also look good with chrome. They have a little more transition than the pre-87 so, they could go either way. But not pre-87's, I think it looks stupid.
Sorry o offend any of u.
