Red face Calling all black lightnings...

I am curious how many people have GREY grills or BLACK grills. I read on "ever seen this lightning, wild looking" that there may be a chance of a goof up at the factory or the dealerships. Mine is grey, but I am pretty sure that it should be black...

Mine's black. I would definitely have made it black if it had come in gray.

I thought mine was black until the recent post, but it looks a little on the grey side.

ok, this is how it is. the grilles are black.the grey ones some of us had seen is no mistaking. i am talking silver not satin black . if your grille matches your bottom air dam grill then your grill is black. ive seen grills on lightnings that are absolutley grey/silver like on the 4wd trucks.like i said before this is not a mistakable black dark grey , these are GREY.TRUST ME IF YOU HAD ONE YOU WOULD KNOW.im just curious why very few have grey grilles
