Plan on getting my grill painted soon, but I want your thoughts. I know the outcome, but I want to know what everybody thinks. My grandpa (who was thinking old school) says the chrome really sets off the front end. laugh.gif Enjoy!

Gotta paint it, but expect it to chip easily. I found out the hard way when I painted my new truck that paint doesn't like to stick to chrome.

 

I would actually recommend spray painting it with Krylon fusion that way when it chips, which it will, it will be easy to fix.

Dude, your whole truck is black. Paint it already. I'd say if anything should be a different color on your truck it would be the break ducts, but not the grill. JMHO.

 

LOL, Thats what Im thinking. I got a stack of parts ready for paint. Waiting on one more thing before it goes to spray. And the brake ducts are staying black. Gray ducts say SS, but mine isnt a SS. So we go MURDA lol
