2016 Q3 Front End Mod

So most of you know that I love my Q but dislike only 2 things: the wheels & the excessive black plastic on the front end.

Item #1 is in process, wheels are ordered.

Item #2 is a bit more complicated, so I started with a minor modification (that can easily be undone if it doesn't work out).

Went shopping for some kind of metal or striping to brighten up all that black. Found kind of a cool mirrored/diamond effect striping that seems tough & durable, so I painstakingly striped those horrid louvers.

Photos attached, would love to get your opinions.
