i have a chrome grille from the factory and dont want to spend $300 on a new on or to get it painted...what would be the process of painting it myself, i have never done the chrome plastic b4...

 

Swap me for my factory black grille and maybe the paint will stick better? I don't know for sure, just a suggestion.

 

the chrome grille will need to be media blasted and then hopefully primer and paint will stick

 

Sorry You Have An 06....i Have An 04 Or That Would Work.

 

Try Krylon Fusion. It's specifically made for plastics.

 

When I painted my chrome center caps I used Duplicolor adhesion promoter. It worked very good. I made sure they were clean and wiped them down with a prep wipe. A couple of coats of the adhesion promoter, then some color and finally a bunch of clear coat. You can find it at any auto parts store. So far it has been holding up without any chipping or peeling. I've been thinking of doing the same to the grill to match my center caps, and badges. Hear is link to my post with pictures. https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...t=black+chrome

 

I have an 05' u could swap me for my black one. just pm me

 

I just hit mine w/ a roloc pad /DA sander and primered.......sprayed w/ mercury outboard paint. Looks all-right to me ? The chrome is a pain in the butt to prep tho

 

Eric ya want to help me do mine mine. I want to black out my headlights and chrome grill.

 

Sorry about that, I guess I should learn to read.
