Swapped out my '18 sport grille with a aftermarket one tonight. I think it looks pretty good. You also don't see everything behind the grille near as bad as I was expecting to. What do yall think? I put a picture up with the stock grille on and one of the new grille.

Looks good!!! Could you use the new grill in your white oem surround?
I would think that would look good too

No, they're setup completely different. But, I am considering having the new surround paint matched, i just haven't decided on it yet lol

I think it looks great all black, matches the trim pieces really well.

Sell me your stock one! I really like that style grille for some reason. Maybe I'm weird haha.

Looks good bud, but I would paint the stock grill black and leave the white ram badge, jmho. Still looks nice though.

Thanks guys - I think I'm gonna leave it all black, it reminds me of the night edition trucks lol.

I do plan on selling the OEM grille - I've already got a guy lined up for it, but if he falls through, I'll put it up for sale in the sale section...

Looks good, I’ve never been crazy about the pig snout grille.

Great looking truck man! I like both styles personally. We just bought a '15 and it has a grill very similar to the one you bought, but they used the factory white surround with the black mesh. I like it but the wife wants one of the stock style all white ones. Anyone that might be interested, maybe we can work a trade??

Hope im not butting in on the thread, just figured id throw it out there.

That looks real good! I'm still on the fence about getting mine color matched...I was surprised that you couldn't see everything behind the grille as bad as I thought you were going to be able to.

I do agree it looks better! My dilemma now is I can't drive around without a grille for a few days while it's being painted lol
