Most people just pain the whole lot satin black......mine definately isn't perfect by a long way but I like the original look so I've left it as is.

Re: Westy Front Grill - Refurb Question
the chrome strip will actually come off with a scotch pad
its about a micron thick!!
if your chrome is shabby your options are to paint the whole grill or to try and find a better one
