I like after, but I'd get a black billet grille maybe with a vintage emblem.

Not a billet fan myself. I'd go for the WW grille or spring for getting those holes filled, smoothed and painted at a body shop IMO.

Cover up the holes (fiberglass, body filler, somehow) have a body guy paint over them and it'll look sweet.

I am not usually a fan of that the mesh grills but that looks pretty good.

What did you use? Where did you get it?
