I figure it would probably be a no-no to paint it... Maybe I just need to live with it the way it is? Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks

Check out "Grumpy Old Man" post, I recall he did one on polishing up windshield window trim... So polishing up a grill should be nearly the same. It'll buff up bright and shine, just takes the right stuff and some time.

This is for Stainless trim, so may need to swap to a milder "aluminum" polishing compound.
