Default 2008 wk chrome grille

My jeep is black. So is the grille. I like the look of the chrome grille with the black. Is the chrome grille a whole separate grille assembly or just a snap on cover that fits over my black grille. I believe Ive seen it both ways on the internet. Which way is factory? 2008 grand, btw.

The Limited and Overland models have chrome grills and can be swapped for your original. They are easy to change and take only a couple of minutes. They are held on by 6 plastic push-pins on the top of the radiator support. Check them out at wkjeeps.com

The Limited and Overland have different mesh backing and they are part of the grill assembly, but can be changed independently.

Thanks. So the chrome grilles that I see that snap on top of the existing grille are not oem but aftermarket?

I wouldn't know, but if so they are probably a lot cheaper.
