I also covered over the small slivers that are on the active shutters in black so only the slats of the grille stand out.

Bonus - The glowing function still works as that is built into the slats and not connected to the surround. I may have the first gloss black surround Iconic glow.

Are the grills only illuminated during entry and exit of the vehicle or do they stay on during nighttime driving?
