Black Grilles

I have been searching and came up with some sick pictures of black grilles on black L's. I want to order one but cannot find a place that sells the black grilles. Is everyone getting chrome ones powerdercoated? If so, where at? Thanks.

Thanks man, ill look into those. That had to be the fastest reply in history. Thanks again, anybody else have suggestions? Also, how is the fit and finish on the carriage works, and does it include the upper and lower?

Thanks bro, Im feelin' yours as well. If you go to fordtruckworld.com, their truck of the week/month or whatever has those on an Expolorer, lol. Your wheels defiinately go with the scheme of your truck.

I really like the looks of the carraige works grilles. Where did you order yours from 35th? I can find the upper, but not the lower. Thanks again for the replies.

I painted my factory 00 grilles black. It looks awsome! Very subtle, but very nice when parked next to a truck with stock grills.
