If either grip sucks eggs try some strap handles. It's more important to have a comfortable secure grip than it is to fight with it for months and months. Take some type of straps and tie them onto the bars so that you can grab onto them like handles (close to the bar). The will enable you to keep your elbows up and thus make it easier to keep the chest up, etc....

The biggest problem you are having with the front squats seems to be your relationship with the bar (haha). You know what I aways say...relate to the bar, not the floor. If you relate to the floor you will go DOWN with you whole body. If you want to stay nice and tight with a chest up position it's about relating to the bar, on the descent and ascent. And not going to deep of course which will force you to round out regardless.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
