    Why don't you get it color matched to your truck $50-100 depending on shop

    It's gonna be hard to find a 2012 grille

    I am in the same boat. I will be picking up my base truck in March from a Portland dealership. I too would like a chrome grille.

    Too bad you're so far away. I can't stand my chrome grille and would love a color matched nautical blue one or even that black one.

    I've contacted Homertaco. He's currently in the research and development phase for the 2012 grilles. I'm definitely going to keep an eye on that thread because his grilles are SICK LOOKING!!!

    If anyone is up in the Northeast and wants to trade for a chrome grille, I would definitely be down for it.
