Overall thoughts on the grill and leaving the trip be? I have a CF CS Spoiler.

IMO if you're going black, stick with the single slat. The double slat looks good when active grille is open, but doesn't line up properly with the active grille slats when closed.
That's great feedback. I didn't know that and I certainly would have regretted it.
