Restore/Refinish Grille???

I am restoring a 69 Coronet and the front metal grille needs a little help but I'm not sure the best way to get it to the point that I need it. Is the black part of the grille something that I could just repaint with some flat black spray paint or is there better ideas? also there is the orange "500" emblem in the middle and should I just mask it off and do the same thing? is there a place that restores grilles so I dont have to? thanks in advance
