I have used Plasti Dip to convert my chrome grill and brushed aluminium window trim into black. Painting your trim: Painting your grill:

nice, I did my grills and they're still holding up strong after a year which I didn't expect.. and I just sprayed it on un-expertly. it would be nice if it just stayed on there as I'm too lazy to do it again lol

I used Plasti Dip Glossifier so they are less Matt looking now.

It's about $40 for matte black/gloss black grilles off eBay that fit 100%. Takes about 2 minutes to install. Much easier than trying to paint your originals.
