I think the ones who have painted it had it painted professionally. If you want to see what it looks like painted just look at an XLT, I'm assuming you have an XL. The outsides of the two are the same except for mirrors, grill, and the black piece you are talking about and the XLT's have that painted to match the rest of the truck so that can tell you what it looks like.

Get the rant!!!! I asked, because of the original question, try to be less general with the question, the black thing is the lower grill opening and they make fillers for them.

I'm pretty sure he is talking about the black upper bumper. He has a white truck so that made the only sense to me so that what I commented on about painting it.
