    Anyone know where I can buy a new "grill surround", I believe that's the name for it. I just bought the grille craft steel mesh grill and my truck is metallic gray. I don't want the factory chrome grille surround.

    I have the same color truck and the chrome grill surround. You can do what I'm doing and just bring it into an autobody shop and have them order a color matched grill or have them color match it themselves.

    Anyone have problems with the paint peeling off their grill surrounds? I dont mean little specks, I mean in large sheets!
    I have an 06 and in a couple more months I'll probably have a raw piece of plastic. It doesnt seem to be caused by road debris either from what I can tell.
