Just got it back from the paint shoppe .....



Hope to install it this weekend.
.

 

Cool, I'd like to see it installed.

 

gonna look great!

 

LOVE IT! I actually saw one painted the other day...wish I could've got a picture. It was a black truck, and they left part of the grille silver, while painting part of it black. It looked very interesting, but I only got a glimpse. I think I liked it.

 

I love it! Lets see this thing mounted on your truck! Looks like they did a nice job with the paint.

 

Looks good but get that thing mounted!

 

Painting Platinum grille shell to match...


-OR-

My Platinum Grill Mod

 

1st pic

 

I really like some things about each grille in the photos above. Actually in the first photo I like that the wide silver border of the original grille is gone. Looks good color matched. I want to see the one from the OP...all blacked out.

 

A couple questions.... Did you have the dealer paint it? Is that tuxedo black color? Also do you think a chrome grille could be painted?

 

Installed .....





Doesn't show-up in the above pic's, however, also fabricated an interim lower grille ( until I can something else ), from a '65 Mustang grille that I had laying around ...



Before pic's ...

 

were your lower black bumper pieces painted as well...what was total cost on something like this...thx

 

I think the black Plat grille would look cool painted black with the chrome billiet inserts for the grille and bumper. That would keep with the Plat theme.

 

Very nice, I drooled on myself a little

 

That truck desperately needs to be lowered a tad. And lose the running boards...
