    I definitely like that style better but that price is a total sham.

    Chrome is my friend, but the Sport grill looks like it belongs on a Kenworth. Toned my grill down a bit.

    I'm part of the blacking things out generation but I do agree it's kind of stupid and getting out of hand. The chrome looks iffy on certain colors though.

    Nope. 2 coats of duplicolor primer for chrome and plastic followed by Krylon Fusion for plastic. I painted the grill without removing it from the truck.

    Chrome belongs on a 57 chevy, or overpriced garage jewelry (aka harleys).
