Now that looks 100% better. Once I am back from hunting this weekend, going to take it off and have it painted.

Thanks
Dave

Just look at it this way the KR grille is tan/some tan variation correct? so its a better looking grille in the same color thus no need to fret about the color. The black looks out of place with the two tone combo, even doing the headlights i'm doubtful if it would tie together. I'm going to be pretty persistent about the tan for the grille but hey its w/e you want and think looks best...

paint the headlights the same color as your truck instead of black

Will be about a week or two before I get this done, since I'm going hunting this weekend will have no time


Thanks all for your input, I'll post up pics once it's done
Thats the right path.

The surround could goeither way but IMHO the grill shouldn't get painted. Those blackout guys can get away with it, not to sure on the rest of us.

Grille is looking sweet.....Absolutely love the Saleen grille. Check out my pix on the badge area. Had Patriot Decals fab up a custom FX4 decal for it. I think yours would rock with the King Ranch logo to fit in that space.
