    Who makes the grill? I like it a lot. Also what method did you use to black out the grill surround? I like that touch too. Nice looking 5-lug, i like the direction you went with it.

    Thanks man! That means a lot!! I actually got the billet grille from a company called Promotion down here by where I live. My friend worked for the company and they made nothing but top of the line aftermarket parts for cars and trucks and so he got it for me for a really cheap price! I removed the grille surround from the truck completely and actually just plasti dipped it. I have also plastidipped the front and rear bumpers and it has held up great which is why I went this route with the grille surround. Thanks again man for the feedback I appreciate it!
