I like the silver grill. The sort-of-hexagon pattern is the same as on the Volt, and thus makes them a family. I turn my head at each Spark I see on the road, hoping it's an EV, and am let down if the grill is black because that shows it's not. Why wouldn't you want it known you're in an EV? Only an EV nerd would know, anyway.
I think the black/white contrast looks better, although I will admit it's a bit more plain. It's true though, now that I think about it - the Spark is such a 'sleeper' car already for an EV (which is why I like it out of pretty much all the entry-level models out there). I think I'm also a bit paranoid about people wanting to damage the car because it's an EV (people who don't like the idea of tax credits, etc.) It has happened with other cars (Leaf, Tesla, etc.) I am not someone who will be charging at public stations very much, so the potential for damage occurring while it's in a marked stall for EVs should be fairly low.
OP - would you be able to do a closeup shot of the grill? Is the pattern still visible after the plastidip?
