Sounds like the hex grid will remain.
the mesh material is going to be different ( there will still be a mesh ) BUT you will see through it ( the blanking plates will be removed ) and see the engine and the reflected gold leaf . It will look so much better

Hey DJ could you work you magic and do the P1 front side view in white and black, would be greatly appreciated. Preferable with the spoiler raised.

The Graphite Grey (Special) or Titanium Silver (Special) definitely suit the car more than the Volcano Orange (Elite)
