Default Gotta love the snow!!! Looking for new grill

Hey everyone,
Just thought I would post a pic of the truck after about 2 hours of snow, in Tulsa, I just put that bull bar on and now I am looking to trade or buy someones black nose guard or grill housing not sure what it is actual called but I have the chrome piece and am looking to replace it with an all black one. Let me know if anyone is interested, we can iron out any details.

Thanks and be safe!

Bull bar looks awesome dude. Buuuut, good luck on finding that trade, lol. 'Bout 97.6567% of the members here are anti-chrome, inlcuding you I reckon

And snow....... ugghhh, we're looking at 6-10 inches by tomorrow morning. Not looking forward to it, I played plenty in the last hit we got in december (somewhere around a foot). Put me out of work for a couple weeks.

Good luck on the trade, maybe throw it out there on craigslist, or maybe any local message boards/trading posts, wortha shot.........

I like chrome. My '66 mustang has the old school chrome bumpers, and trim. My motorcycle is covered in chrome (stock, but most of the bike is chrome besides the swing arm, engine, and rims), and I love the chrome grill and chrome 20's on the Ram. To each their own I say. I do appreciate a blacked-out truck though.... looks awesome. And if I had a black truck, I would probably do that too.

Well the snow is finally gone, and get to wash the old truck, but I do think that I am going to powdercoat the chrome skid plate, and if anyone is looking to part out that grille assembly let me know, any color paint would work. The dealer said they would paint it for me for 160.00, but that seems a little steep, what do you all think... get it done cheaper, and I was looking at some of these custom grille inserts and there are some nice ones on here. Thanks again!
