New Rims and Grille, What Silicone to Use??

Sorry about the cell phone pics. I ordered both the rims (from Jakuo) and Rims (from Tires 2,3 in Mississauga) on the 16th and had everything by the 23rd of this month.

How does it look?

Question: I would like to secure the big star on the grille, and even the hood emblem, what would be the best type of silicone to use?

Thanks!

i am not too sure of the black grill... i would paint it the car color.
And the rims are great, but i am not a big fan of black rims in general.
Deff looks unique i give you that much!

Send a message via AIM to Tri-Star
If you tint the windows it'll prob look even better. What size rims are those?

Tri-Star: I plan on tinting this weekend, is $150 CAD reasonable? My friend had his altima tinted at the same place for the same price roughly 7 years ago and it's fine, I don't think it has bubbled, I'll have to check with him.

The wheels are 225/45/17. I didn't want to deal with getting 18-19" and riding high.

Eesjunin: I was hesitant about the grille myself, but when you look at the car in its entirety, it works...but tints would actually make it complete IMO.

As for adhesives to secure the emblems, what did you guys use with the CL grilles?
