Default Powder coating grille?

Do you think you could power coat the mesh part of this grille? i think it would look sick if the mesh was flat black to match my rockstars. Lemme know what you guys think

That $369 grill reminds me of a new Tundra grill. Looks like a big mouth bass

But, That's just my opinion and if you like it, I say go for it. I'd just hate to spend that kind of money and then even more to alter it.

What grill does yours have now?

Off topic:

I'm curious why Dodge calls my 08 grill a Billet grill in the brochure as part of the BigHorn package. It is plastic and looks like this one http://www.sporttruckdirect.com/Pics...l_17-597_G.jpg.
Isn't billet supposed to be aluminum?

ive searched ebay high and low and havent come up with anything that catches my eye. I really want a black mesh big mouth. I wish i could get an RBP but i just cant justify spending that kind of coin on a grille. If anyone knows any options in black please let me know.
