Default Front Grille Assembly?

Hey guys, i have a 1997 maroon F150. Not 100% sure what this is called, but the "grille shell" is what i believe it is called. I currently have the chrome plastic shell, i want it to match my truck. Ive searched on ebay, etc etc etc.. Don't know if im not using the right name for it? or if it just can't be done. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU KNOW OF A WEBSITE TO BUY FROM, AND/OR KNOW HOW TO SPRAY IT A DIFFERENT COLOR.

;;EXAMPLE;; http://cdn3.volusion.com/gvqe3.vtfz4...0560_exp-2.jpg

;;WHAT I WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE;; http://images.cobaltgroup.com/3/8/5/8221172583x400.jpg

Thanks in advance for all the help!!

It is called a grill surround. If you prep the chrome you can paint that one. Some people will say you can't but you can. I have had friends do it and it's just fine.
