Many people have told me to use the bed liner http://www.duplicolor.com/products/truckbed.html

but whats the diff between using that, and just a general purpose matte black paint

http://www.duplicolor.com/products/premium.html

what do you guys think? I want to remove my grille insert, paint it matte black and put chrome plating behind it.

should i paint or should i buy an already black one on EBAY (found one the other day that was 10 bucks but some clips were broken.)

If it were me I would either buy some plastic paint scuff up the grille paint and clear coat OR sand it down, roll on a few layers of Herculiner and be done with it.

I would use Herculiner over Duplicolor and over the paint.

Paint is going to chip on plastic.... Bedliner would be best.... Unless you don't mind repainting every so often... Like me!!! Paint is good!!!!

I noticed you want black.... Are you going to paint your bumpers and fenders to match?

Just Line-x the whole thing.....
