Default Blackout project: grill and mirrors.

I want to black the rest of my dodge and was wondering if any of you have replaced the chrome grill with a black one like this

http://www.ebay.com/itm/94-01-DODGE-...ht_3733wt_1014

I also have the chrome power mirrors, I would like to get them black too, Any recomendations? Would the large tow mirrors look bad on it?

Thanks guys. Any 2nd gens with this done? Pictures appreciated

I am repainting my truck. Black metallic, and thinking of leaving the badging off. I purchased a new chrome grill a while back, but am thinking about changing it out for the black one. Don't know if it would be "too" black or not.

Well my "chrome" on my mirrors and grill are bubbling. Would it be easier to get the 50 dollar grill and for the mirrors could you do the same? I like the black mirrors^ but most people believe the wire looking mirrors are disgusting.
