Default front bumper goes to the body shop tomorrow, is there anything else I should do?

I am having my front bumper repainted bc of rock chips and I am removing the front plate and filling in the holes it made (I purchased a grill bracket). I was going to have them remove the front nissan hamburger bc I purchased the chrome Z emblem to replace it. I was thinking about just having them take off the nissan emblem and fill in or "shave" that area so it would be clean and badgeless. any thought on this? has anyone done this? would the chrome Z circle look better? anything else I could/should do?

Of course members have had the front bumper painted. The only thing that I have seen that is unique is painting the black grill the same as the rest of the bumper.

there have been TONS of people shaving the hamburger off and filling in that area. Nothing to jump around about...

But it does look good and clean.
