Actually, from my experience the answer is NO. Upgraded front bumper of my 4.4 to 4.8. Both my dealer and bodyshop proved that they are different incompatible grills. Surprised the heck out of me.

We (dealer, bodyshop, and I) were wrong. Just picked up my 4.4 after getting the 4.8 bumper put on. All lower grills are titanium. Loving it!

The 2 smaller up grills are the same as the aero kit. But the larger lower grill in the bumper is definaltely not the came as the 4.8 bumper grill. It will not fit. I already tried it.

But now from an earlier thread i found out this can actually be done. So im assking, please if anyone knows about this option at all, can you guys provide me with a part number or a color code(of the front grill) so i can maybe either replace the lower grills if they already come aluminum/titanium, or simply get them painted by using that "color code"


Here is the best pic i could find, I know this picture could be somewhat photoshopped, but It kind of explains what i want.
