I have a chrome tailgate trim piece, the one that goes above the license plate and says "Explorer" with my camera mounted in it. I want it in black. I painted it but I know that eventually the paint will flake / chip off the chrome beneath (yes, roughed up and primered).
I can get the ones off PIUs without the camera (my city is too cheap to equip the police Tauruses and PIUs with cameras) in black but I don't know if the camera will come off my chrome version and easily go on to the black PIU version. The part number on the cop version is: DB5Z-13B482-CB.
The black ones with the camera included are in the $500.00 ish range whereas I can get the cop ones for the price of a lunch. Any info appreciated.
