I want to trade my 09 xlt chrome H Bar for a black base model H Bar or Black grille any style that will fit my truck ( not a gay ebay aftermarket wierd ghetto looking one). Lemme know what ya got . mine has no chips or scratches its purty and shiny.

this is what i want ,

 

im in the same boat, but i have the chrome mirrors as well

 

...

 

i don't know if hes still a member but Lazler has my black H Bar and hes not using it

 

found him and sent him a message thanks

 

bump trade or buy outright i want one still

 

bump

 

i have a black bedlined one i'd sell ya.

 

yeah i know lol debating how the bedliner would look with the rest of the truck...your thread reminded me to bump mine...what are you running now?

 

im rockin an 04/05 grille with the center insert gone with a full face billet grille

 

dan, why do you want to go with the base model? imo, the bare plastic looks cheap and unfinished... go with the painted one, like what was on my truck, and just have it painted black... the clearcoat finish looks much more professional than the bare, textured plastic, imo fwiw

 

IMO you need to keep the chrome. black on black IMO isnt nice looking. black and chrome go way better.

 

im hoping to have everything blacked out shortly i already nightshaded my third brake light really dark and doing my taillights just lightly dont wana get rear ended and getting blacked out(on the inside of the cover) headlights. then the badges and rims will still be chrome to set it off . i was going to get my grille painted was told it would be cheaper to get the base model grille and get it painted.

 

hey man why dont you go to the meet sunday? and the chrome on the grille is cheap its showing wear already the dam sand out here blowing at 200mph isnt helping. idk what i want to do i change mymind more than a women does.

 

bass model grill is an "unpaintable" plastic, you have to sand and prime, and sand and prime and base and sand and clear or you can get the colour keyed, which comes (depending on where you get it) as a dark dark grey (almost black) base/primer, and all it needs is a clear, or some other base, just spray it black and clear it... done and done...

basically, what it would boil down to, why take something that is not ment for paint, and paint it when you can get one (for probably roughly the same price) that is already preped and primed
