This might be a stupid question. Would it be possible to replace the chrome with a black grill like the ram sports have? If so, anyone know how much?

You talkin' the whole thing or just the interior? I have black honeycomb and lookin' to get the interior part you have. I also want to paint the border to match the rest of the truck.

a lot of guys dont like to paint over chrome, because it doesnt like to adhere, but if you do it right, its fine. my grille was just sanded down and then painted over. looks great and has held up well.
