Does anyone know the paint code for the trim circled in the picture? Called the dealer and only can get the whole cars paint code,

But, is it painted?? Or just raw plastic?

Did you ever find out the answer? I've got to replace one soon.

Always tried to figure it out.

I'm quite sure it's not painted. It's just got a polished look to it.

It will be the same type of material that they use for gloss black plastics grills, as in its the natural plastic finish and not a painted or clear coated.

My local ford dealer says it's painted because the part number is PR3Z-17E810-AAPTM. The ptm at the end means paint to match. My broken piece looks the same color inside and on the backside. Doesn't look painted

You can scrape the backside and see if paint flakes off. Ford always trys to save money when painting can be eliminated.
If it is the same part number used on the GT that is why Ford says paint to match. GT's are all painted.

I'll find out in a few days. I just ordered a new one. It says primed in the description but who knows

Yes please. Because I got my dark horse bumper conversion kit and based on a million different pictures, the body shop painted it grey. I looked at a dark horse in person, and up close, it is grey. But based on lighting and angle it’s black

Just got my new part delivered. This one will need painted. It's clearly made from a different material than the factory one was. I did buy this from an online ford dealer because it was cheaper so maybe I got a rip off?

Nah that’s real. I’ve gotten it before from ford sites

Anyone used the aftermarket ones from ebay? They are cheaper and look closer to factory without painting
