Anyone use an aluminum or chrome grill with a white bumper?

Looking for some pics that I cannot seem to find through google. My 65 was tagged by a drunk driver a while back and I'm in the process of getting him back looking straight. I bought a nice used complete original aluminum grill assembly but I want to stay with the original white painted bumper. Does anyone have pics of an aluminum grill with a white bumper? Pics of a chrome grill/white bumper would work too. All the pics I find seem to have white/white or chrome/chrome and I'm trying to see how the contrast would look. I have a nice white grill I can use if that just looks better but trying to see some examples and make up my mind.

On a side note, can I use mag wheel spray or something else to brighten up the original grill and headlight bezels without spending hours polishing it by hand?

Thanks, Chris

Thanks. That's a great start at seeing what the contrast of the two finishes looks like.
