Developing Doneo-style grille, powdercoat it?

[SRT-11]

So I've finally gotten some aircraft-grade stainless steel mesh and DAMN this stuff is freakin expensive!!! Anyway I'm going to use it to make a 7-piece grille like Doneo's, and I can't decide if I should polish it as best I can or have it powdercoated to match my wheels?
