chrome grill - replace or paint black?

[jediwebdude]

Haven't seen anything on replacing chrome front grill with a blackened one. Anyone aware of an aftermarket option for this?

If not, I may just try to paint it.

Plastidip it. It's easy, and if you don't like it, peel it off. Use the search bar. :nerd:

How about Option #3
-Replace it w/ The OEM Limited Color Matching Grill

The grill on my Limited was faded and I couldn't decide whether I wanted to buy a chrome version or have it repainted...but if repainted, would have looked nicer than the rest of the paint on the truck.

I ended up painting it flat black figuring if I didn't like it, I could still buy a chrome one. I used Rustoleum Industrial that comes in the tall cans. I have a couple cases of this stuff since I've used it in the past on so many things on my crawler Jeep. It holds up really well on bumpers and sliders. At the same time I painted the center section of the bumper below the vents.
