Do you want painted black specifically, or would the standard black plastic (as fitted to non-XS or LE models) grille be OK?

standard black grille and light surrounds always look best on a new LR, especially if it is black anyway.
give it 10 years and the grille fades to grey anyway |

All black Land Rover (not Ebay) grill and light surrounds are the nicest of all the grill options.
There are some really good plastic trim products with UV block to help with the phototodegredation. (Think that's a word.) |

I sprayed my faded black grill/ surrounds with Halfords Black Bumper paint - looks new and fresh - gives a slight matt finish

Thats a nice 90.... of mine lol.
 From the Atherstone Car Show this year.
I've had a few front ends painted now - matt works well, as does gloss on certain colours. Worth having the mirror heads done at the same time.
