    Has anyone recently purchased any cement color grill, bulge, or any other body part to get rid of the chrome from Sparks parts? I'm asking for recent purchases. I would like to know if the color is matching perfectly with the stock body color. I've been seeing some conflicting information about that. I have seen on YouTube and some pictures that they do not match but I'm wondering if they fixed that problem. Appreciate the help on this

    Not Cement but, I ordered from Sparks. Silver sky. Might not mean much but, the bulge was dead on and the surround was a bit off. It's really not bad at all. My advice would be to call them. Tell them what you want and then say "I have really bad ocd so please don't send them unless they are a perfect match". Good luckIMAG1908_1_1_1.jpg

    Colors will NEVER match 100%. If u want the closest match order everything unpainted, take ur truck to a body shop so they can scan your truck and then get u the closest to your color. Not the cheapest way.

    It is not perfect...but damn close. I have grill shell, hood bulge, mirror caps, door handles and front bumper ends from sparksparts Good enough for me. Cement shows different in different light

    There are many different shades of all of the colors and the same paint will look different on plastic (the hood bulge and surround) and metal (the hood). The only way you will get an exact-ish match is if you leave the truck at a local paint shop and they can better match the paint to the rest of the body. I have a white grill and bulge from Sparks and it is close but not exact.

    I took mine to body shop and he took his magical paint gun and matched the paint for my grille and bumper and door handles. I have a 2019 Cement. It all matches very well.
