They come primed and need to be painted. Just had to change mine because I cracked it in the snow.

I'd just paint the ones on the truck painted. They are already so it shouldn't be a problem. Otherwise you'd be paying for the bumper and paint instead of paint. I'd only buy new ones if you wanted fog lights or dual cut outs in the back.

I'm not a fan of the plastic facia like I have. It cracked to easy. If you have a steel bumper on the truck, I'd look into getting it painted. If I end up cracking mine again I'm going to change it to a steel bumper and get it painted.
