Yes you can do that. What color is yours? I did mine with the Krylon plastic paint, it matches up pretty good. Cant tell a difference 20 ft away.

My diesel is white. My 1/2 ton is dark green with a hint of oxidation.

Yut! Semper Fi!

I used a adhesion promoter, and then white krylon plastic paint over the chrome XLT grill (my chrome was halfway gone anyways).

It was good for a coupld months but then it's starting to flake off the chrome parts now. I'd get a XL grill and do it if you want to go that route.

I actually am wanting to go back to the chrome grill, either stock XLT chrome, ALL chrome stock grill (looks sweet), or a billet grill

Your Marines and not patient Actually it wasnt that bad I had the whole thing done in a couple hours. Its easier to overlap the tape and then use a hobby knife and trim it out, that part took me a whole 30 minutes.
