Default GMC Grill Emblem???

Hey fellas, I wanted to pick your brain, and see what is available for changing up our grill emblem. I have just bought a 2011 Sierra with the All Terrain Package, and everything, like the grill, bumpers, handles, and mirrors are all color matched from the facktory, and the color is black.

My problem is that the red GMC logo sticks out like a sore thumb. Is there something that i can do with this? Do they sell other emblems other then billet ones? What about a full billet grill? Who has the best prices on them? Let me know what you guys have done, and please post pics of yall's trucks...

I got my ugly yellow front Bow-tie painted body color (Silver), and I don't know of any reason why you couldn't do the same with that big red GMC on your grill.

I kept mine red because the contrast of red and black look awesome!
And i don't know that i have ever seen a GMC logo other than red.
You could always get some vinyl tape of your choice and pick your color.
