Installed an eBay "Raptor" grille on my Pro SR and looking for inspiration for painting it to make it look less "plasticy"

The newest Raptor inside looks just like my 23 XLT Lightning, minus the red stitch?!

I cannot help you with painting your grill but I like what you did to your light bar. Is that painted or a wrap? Looks great!

Take it off the truck and take it to a paint shop. That's definitely not something you want to do yourself because the paint will pool up if not applied correctly.

It will also need to be primed or else eventually chip off rather quickly. Paint shop should be able to do that for about 400-500 bucks.
Buy once cry once. Buy cheap and hate it every time.
