Absolutely. For the price and how easy to install...well worth it. High gloss black would work great. Plasti-dip maybe even better. Installed on my 2013 SCREW and have alot of compliments and 'where did you get it?'.

This is not the guard you want. It will void factory warranty as it restricts air flow to the cooler behind it. Suggest talking to Ford before investing in such a unit.

Should Be Ok To Plasti-Dip. Just Be Sure To Clean All Surfaces And Do A Final Wipe With Denatured Alcohol.

Probably could be scuffed and painted. Only the grille edges that show are chrome. the rest is black , on the one I recieved.

Micheal, when I purchased mine, the product was offered in both chrome and black.
1867995
They make a black one without chrome but you could definitely plasti-dip it.

You should be able to get it in all black. If it's all sold out (the all black) then it shouldn't be too hard to repaint the grille front black.

It is not totally chrome plated, the internal faces are black so I reckon with some prep and spray primer for metal you could easily spray gloss of Matt black and make it look sweet on your truck - worth a shot in my opinion!

I think the same company that makes this grille also makes it in black powder coat. I think the paint would chip to easily

APS F66789H Black Powder Coated Aluminum Billet Grille Bolt Over for select Ford F-150 ModelsI would not paint it but they did make a black one

Hello, yes this is probably paintable. I never painted it because I have a black car and its black. The item is a great fit and match to my 04 Nissan Altima.

This is a glitch in the listing. This can be for either one, just let us know via email which color code you need to have the bumper painted and we will paint this to match your paint code. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with Thank you OnlinePartBin

I would suggest lightly sanding the black with 150- 220 grit paper so new paint will grip well. If you can prime with something other than Latex, be better off on metal, perhaps rustoleum. I f you can get the paint in oil , would be best, but unlikely. Use gloss at any rate as harder finish I believe. The last option...Move ! Kidding Mark

You could paint one on him since it's porcelein. My guy has a go-t but I just left it the way it is...I got a lot of compliments on it. People were focused more on the fact that he is much taller than me and the bride is standing on a box to kiss him. You might even be able, if you wanted...to use a thin brown magic marker and create a beard...but I would have someone do it that is a little "artsy". Hope that helps..

I've seen it done before. As for doing it myself, I have not. However I am very happy with this product and the black color that I have under this. You have the ability to add as much or as little gloss as you want to get the look you are going for. I would say do it! :-)

The picture of the headlight is very accurate.. the portion around the inside of the headlights is black... it's not possible to have the whole inside of the headlight black because the light needs to reflect off of the inside portion in order to work correctly on all headlights. if you want the whole inside to appear black you need to get the smoked black lenses so that the lens itself is black.. the inside cannot be all black.. these lenses are very nice I am very happy with my purchase and I'm sure you will bet too if you seaide to purchase... smoked lenses tend to decrease your visibility.. so think carefully before you buy smoked lenses because of that.

Thank you for your interest in the Car Cache! I had the same decision to make... The tan is more of a Blonde. I have a Camry with a taupie/tan interior. The black looks much better in it than the tan. Since the dashboard and gear shift areas have black it still blends in. Feel free to call me if you have other questions (859) 912-2747 Again, thank you for your interest in the Car Cache! Catherine Seifert

It is so very dark brown that the degrees of difference from black are minimal. You can paint it if you require a true black. Personally, I think it is a rich and lovely color and it goes well with the black in my home without looking out of place.

It could be spray painted with an acrylic paint. Have not seen it in black.

Sorry. this item will only come unpainted in black. If you need another color, you will need to take it to auto body shop to have it painted to match your car's color. Thanks.

Dennis the answer to your question is the back of the unit painted to match the front? No, it is not. You could paint it to match. Sorry. Have a nice day.

I agree - almost anything can be painted black - not sure why you would want to - the natural finish I think is very nice

I ordered mine in black but i believe the cuatomer is asking the seller if their are any available in black now. Just fyi...we love ours....looks just like our black one we drive!

Yes, stuff that's intended for black vehicles should be used on any dark vehicle IMO, due to other products leaving visible residue in scratches or pin strips sometimes(if your car has them). when up close, it does the opposite of hiding them with black or dark paint background.
