Default 06 Dodge Ram 1500 Grill Options



I would like to do something to improve the look of the front of my dodge 1500.
I noticed most people have chrome on this picture where I drew green lines... mine however appears to be some sort of plastic that could be painted.

I need some ideas.. should I go chrome? Paint it another color? Or leave it as is?

Also whats the max wheel+tire size I could put on it as is?
Thanks

I want your bumpers!!! I ordered the black W/T grille shell like you have. I plan to paint just the outer edge white leaving the center crossbars black. Just an idea.

Fist one with the AT tires looks good except the fuel door being on the wrong side of the truck. Kinda sticks out like a sore thumb. LOL!!

I would paint to match rather then go chrome.
