Black grilles?
Please post pictures of black grilles/bezels. Whether all black or just a part of it black. I'm debating doing it to my 88, but I'm not sure if I want to do the entire thing. Thanks, Bradley

Re: Black grilles?
Did mine 3 years ago. I need to touch it up a bit though since it's got a few scrapes and chips in it.
Before. After..... May have it sprayed with bedliner next time

Re: Black grilles?
J Knight.... that 82' grille looks fantastic! Makes the chrome pop out! Much better looking than the 85-87 IMO
