I'm betting its upper since the LS has colored matched lower grills.

I'd say mesh or stock, otherwise it'll look like ass

I would say black and/or mesh for the upper grill. Love the way it looks.

I say black or a black mesh. Color matched would probably be too much red and would chip and crack easily since the stock grill is so flexible.

Hell it's your car do what you want.
