The grills from Cobalt Addiction are made by Carriage Works. Carriage Works makes them all black and send them out to be polished and buffed (something like that)

Basically, they are all black and the front is just polished up and looks billet. They are available from Carriage Works without having the front polished. I'm not sure if Cobalt Addiction can order them without the polished front, but I bet they can. They have a great focus on customer satisfaction so I'm sure they could work something out for you. I plan on doing the same thing; however, I've just been back and forth about having to permanently modify my front bumper to install the grills.

I probably will be waiting until the spring to see if someone else with a black cobalt does it first so I can see how it looks. I will almost gaurantee that it looks **** though. Shoot an e-mail to CA and see what they can do. I'm sure you'll be happy with the results.
