Black gril for two lower bumper openings

Hello,

Looking for the front bumper two lower opening hole grilles. I have found plenty in silver but I want BLACK. Anyone have a link to a pre-made kit. I looked through a few of the forum vendors but didn't notice black ones.

Thank you,

Brian

Wow, that is a price I did not expect. I was thinking maybe $50, guess I am waaaay out of touch.

Any other links? I did go to a Walmart and found silver mesh that was recommended in another thread but I REALLY want to stay on me "black out" theme .

Take care,

Brian

just paint the silver mesh you can buy from walmart to black, that should be easy and cheap too.

True enough. Just looking for something pre-made with the fog light cut outs already done. Call me lazy but I prefer to have it professionally cut/done.

Take care,

Brian

I can see wanting to do the foglight/oil cooler openings, but I kinda like the stock "scoop."

Looks like these would require black paint as well, but nicely pre-cut.

Any other ones out there that maybe come cut for the fog lights and possibly stock black?

Thank you,

The RX Strakes folks are good people. They might paint them for you since they are set up to paint strakes. Never hurts to ask.

Allen replied that the strake painting is outsourced. Have to give them props though, it took less than five minutes to get a reply to my e-mail...great customer service.

Take care,
