    Anyone on Oahu know where I can get a professional grade gloss black painted on my stock grill? I've gone to a few places that are quoting me at $400+. I want a good job but $400 is a lot for a stock grill. Any suggestions?

    You can buy a new TRD Pro grille for $400, or paint your existing cowboy hat grille for $400. Does that include disassembly, paint and installation? Not sure where to get a better deal for paint, but I was stationed in Oahu at Schofield Barracks! :D
