Wouldnt it be a whole tot cheaper just to get one off of ebay, and paint it chrome??

 

No. The Ford OEM grilles are much higher quality than the cheap eBay plastic chrome grilles that pit, chip, and scratch easily.

Here's a picture of the new H-Bar Grille from Ford.

 

Looks a lot like the ebay versions. Here's a pic of JackCarters off ebay. Mine should be here in a next week.

 

It looks similar, but is it up to OEM standards? I also bought the complete chrome H-bar grille from eBay. This is before I knew of the one coming out from Ford.

The chrome H-bar insert I purchased from eBay was garbage - cheap chrome and the bars were already spotted and chipped right out of the box. Search eBay for: 04 05 06 FORD F150 CHROME GRILL GRILLE INSERTS NEW
