Default not sure what to do...

i bought my z pre-owned in october, and the front bumper has been repainted to fill in the chips from highway driving, unfortionetly they didn't mask off the grill and what ussed to be black is now red. it doesn't look nearly as good as the stock, i'm wondering if i shold get a new bumper, lip+grill, repaint...ect..i dunno. any suggestions?

does the bumber itself look good, as far as the repaint? If that looks ok then id just get a new grill, like a bullit type.

You can just cut out the grill. Of course this looks the best if you have an intercooler, but it's not required.

well, the paint looks decent, but not great, it doesn't have the same shine as the rest of the car. almost a bit hazy. i'm thinking about painting the grill black again, but i think that may not turn out as great..how should it cost to completely repain the front bumper professionaly?
