Help

[Mad Cow]

I have the supplies to pain my front ram head but I do not know how to remove the front Ram Head. Please help me I have a 2011 Sport. I also am going to take it apart to paint the chrome and black different colors. The faster the reply the better.

It should have hooks or pins on the back side of the grille.

Yeah so for future folks that want to do this. Make sure the plastic is warm first because removing in negative temps I snapped off two of four tabs. I will be addding 3m tape to re-install the badge. Also anyone know where I can buy a new ram head. The matching red paint was crap and sprayed in clumps.

Online? Or from someone who's taken theirs off.

Did you break the tabs on the black plastic piece? I have an extra one of those sitting on my desk if you want it

d'oh!

I am not sure if you can get those by themselves.......sometimes the grill emblems only come with a grill.

The paint came out in globs? What was the temp of the paint?

did u paint it outside? thats probably why it clumped, its too cold

Ok The paint was a issue with the spray tab thing on top. It really made the red look like crap. In the end I made it look okay. I am a bit of OCD so I will buy a new emblem and do it again in a month or so but in the end it looks pretty cool. I used some double sided 3m tabe to stick it back on. I did all the painting in the heated garage and made everyone inside the house high but it looks cool. I think I will now paint the grill insert black instead of installing the black honeycomb grill. I had 2 guys this week ask if my Ram was a express so I am going to try to keep any stock express looking stuff off my truck for now.

Oh here is how it turned out.

Looks great!

I think that next year I will install some Off Road bumpers and paint to match.

 

[TexasRammer]

that looks really good!

 

[0212353]

if people think its an express............they just don't know what they are looking at.

Color matched mirrors and handles - oh, and the quad headlights. 3 big visual cues from the exterior.........

But, hey - looks GREAT!!

 

[Mad Cow]
