Im looking at buying a black grille off ebay comes with the grille and both headlight bezels looks like its made by a company called autosdepo. Anyone else have any experience with this item as far as fitment and quality goes?
Also has anyone painted there windshield trim, wondering the best way to go about that?

Thanks, Jared

avoid any grills on ebay, alot of them are just cheap chinese crap. i bought a "billet" off there and it was 100% plastic and broke just being shipped. sent the pieces back and filed a claim through paypal to get my money back.

guy i bought mine from had a good rep at the time, it just kinda went down hill shortly after i had to deal with paypal as well as alot of others. ive seen a couple places like that on there lately.

I just painted my bezels this past weekend. Just cleaned them up and used some krylon plastic paint. Holding up just find so far. Looks good too.

when i painted my interior pieses with krylon fusion i wiped it all down with acetone, it kinda etched into the plastic alittle.

I'll post some pictures tommarow when I have more time. I just washed my truck today because it was 40 out and they held up just fine.

Here are some pictures:

Sweet, thanks for the links and numbers, i wonder how well the plastic will hold up if i installed it bare with no paint. i dont want it chipping and lookin like crap. but thats basically the same grille and bezels id like to put on, let me know how the fit is please, do you plan on installing them soon??

Clouse, looks good, if you painted the windshiled trim it would go together nicely i think, im not a fan of that trim it stands out so badly esp. on my truck being black and all

Thanks for the input on it, that'll look good once its done. debating about the smoked lights on my truck or the one piece clears... we will see

Yes the windshield trim will be getting painted. And the mirrors will be powdercoated black also.
