Hello all,

I have a 2021 tradesman Cummins that I bought used at a great deal. However I am not a big fan of chrome and after researching different options for the front grill and surrounds it seems that the most cost effective way(while still looking cool to me) is to get the power wagon grill and its surrounds that look to be basically black plastic. I dont want to have to deal with getting any parts painted(except for the RAM in the middle that will match the truck). I havent been able to find it through google searches but I would like to order the parts from a forum dealer since cool parts guys are few and far between( I asked our dealer parts guy and he looked at me like I had an egg plant growing out of my forehead). Thanks!

i think the power wagon grill is the worst grill of any new ram. I like the Tradesman grill.

I don’t know if it will be easy or possible. The power wagon has LED lights that are shaped different than the tradesman.

I love my 2021 Power Wagon grill. each to his own. But having said that, the Tradesman is pretty nice to when compared with the rest.

I think it would work cause if you look at them side by side, they look the same other than the lights. But it looks like your lights could stay.

I would try a wrap shop or paint shop and paint the upper and lower surrounds and chrome trim on the grill. I've contemplated that same thing for as long as I've owned the truck. Personally, I think the tradesman has one of the best grilles because of the larger amount of airflow as well as the subdued design.

Probably not what you want to hear but: Far and away the easiest, most cost effective, and best result will come from having your existing grill painted by a quality shop. They should be able to take it off, you can still drive the truck, come back and get it put on when paint is dry.

I know it is just my opinion, but I intentionally ordered mine with as much Chrome as I could get, LOVE Chrome, always have. Back in the 60s and 70s, only the higher trim levels had Chrome. :)

Well, that’s just like, your opinion man.
exactly it is just my opinion but every day I have to look at my freaking ugly grill and it is tough...when I bought my pw I also looked at tradesman with pw option and it was hard not getting the tradesman just for the grill, but I did like the interior of the pw so it won out.5DBCE900-3C09-4FCC-BA40-E30AA93EDF5F_1_201_a.jpeg

Id trade you grills if youd be down but mine is the chrome version of the right one. Do you happen to remember when they were together if the surrounds (top long piece and two outer lower pieces) were the same texture as the power wagon

I don't remember for sure, but pretty sure they are the same texture. If yours was identical to the white one and we were in the same town I would trade but too much of a hassle having to send it.

I ordered plain grill surround, and painted them diamond black to match truck, they come primed. I have the chrome if anybody is interested, you can paint it also.
