I bought a Black Paint Match Grill from an eBay store. I have a 2011 Ram in Brilliant Black Crystal Pearl or whatever and figured all the black trucks came in that color. When I was looking for grilles they all had black listed as the color. I got it today and noticed its a gloss black and with flake. I'm wondering if anyone else has swapped to a black grille and had this issue. Will it be that noticeable? I don't blame the parts place, but I do blame myself.

I'm missing something.........the grill you got is "gloss with flake"

but not PXR?

PX8, 2012's black is a straight gloss, no metallic to it.
