Talking Where to get Black Grill 2008 Highlander V6 Base

I'm looking to get a Black Grill for my 2008 Highlander V6 Base, along with a blacked out Toyota emblem.

Anyone got a site where I could purchase them and also how to put them in??

Thanks

I haven't seen an after market grill in all black.

I can't recall who, but i believe someone painted theirs black. However, unless it was painted professionally, I would be concerned with eventual chips from bugs and road debris, which in my opinion, would look way worse than just having a stock grill.

Ditto.

I have a basic '08 and the grill has been painted dark for about three years. I also painted the stainless steel bull bar black. Oddly enough I do get chips on the metal bull bar, and easily touch them up, but on the grill have had no chips at all. I took the grill off and made sure to give it a good sanding so the paint would get good grip. Gave it about three coats right out of a can. For perfection you could take it out and give it to any body shop to do a pro job. Hope this helps.
