[PAPARAZZI]

YEP. Ford does make black grills, i have one on my 06 limited.

ebay is a possibility [depending on seller rep], your local stealership, or online search for ford wholesale parts.

i think they are proud of them, because they are not cheap.

Actually, I think you may be a little dissappointed and unable to find much... and I know this because my last Expy was an '05 Eddie Bauer that I had painted all white (hated the 2-tone look), the body shop just ended up painting the grill all white, I'll see if I can find a pic. The problem is, it'll start chipping after a few rocks hit you, and you need to keep the touch-up stick handy or else it'll look pretty bad, pretty quickly.

here's my '05 all white... I loved that truck!

Sand and paint it with black trim paint from Autozone/Advance. Mine's been hold it up well for a few months now. It gives it a nice matte black color.

ELVATO, can you show me some pictures to see what it looks like, thanxs

 

[ELVATO]

What I can take right now. I'll try to get one in the daytime tomorrow.



Sorry about the quality, my camcorder doens't take great stills.

Paparazzi, you can use the fusion paint by Krylon. I used it on my (originally grey) mud guards. It resists cracking, chipping, and peeling. I've painted my guards about 3 yrs ago and the only time it came off was when I went over a curb and gouged the the mud guard on the way down.

I masked and painted mine, looks sharp, wish I had done it sooner

Yeah just paint it with Krylon. I didn't even take mine out to paint it.. I just put some cardboard behind it and used some tape and plastic to cover closeby areas. Cost less then $10 and looks much better.
