Grille borders
Heres sumtin I need advice on.... My buddy told me to paint/replace the chrome grille border on my truck... But i looked around and have not found a replacement for the border... He said just paint it... But where the truck is so new and looks great... I don't wanna just paint it... I still want it to look nice... Does anyone know the best way to paint that part... or where I'd be able to find a black grille border? I've tried finding them online... either nobody has them or I'm using the wrong search terms... Any help would be nice.....

You cannot simply paint the chrome surround, you need to purchase a paintable surround. However, if you have an 07 Brilliant Black Ram, I believe you can purchase the color-matched surround from Dodge (or Mopar). Since they sell the Ram Sport in that color, they will have to have that piece available because the Sport models have color-matched surrounds. If I am not mistaken, the surround piece is the same for all 1500 models (as far as fit). I had to paint mine because Dodge doesn't sell an Inferno Red Sport model, which means they don't sell that part in that color.
Just contact your dealer and inquire about a black surround for a Sport model. Oh yeah, cost is around $300 - $350 for the color-matched surround piece.
