Do not paint your stock grill... the paint will not stick.... do no paint the st grill, the paint will not stick... go to your dodge dealer and buy a new sport grill and get it painted to match. Hang on to your grill for about a year and you willl probably be able to make half the cost of the new grill you bought back by selling it on ebay.

Dodge wants between $350-$400 for just the grill and that does not include paint. I will wait for the aftermarket I guess...

The new factory 20's look nice! Much better than the hippy flower 20's on the 02-05 Rams.. Thats why I opted for the 17's..

Yep, I have an 03 QC 1500 same color as yours (Patriot Blue) which is what I looked everywhere for. It originally had the 20's on it, but I asked if I could swap another vehicle for the Aluminum 17's. They said yes and dropped the price of my truck about 2300 bux! I was happy with the look, and the price drop. I love my truck. Good choice on color, the best lookn' one I think.
