Ok i couldnt stand it anymore, needed to see what the Grille would look like in Copper so i had it sprayed BUT i think i liked it in black better 
Maybe it will look better when i get the Tan off-road bumpers OR maybe ill have to have it painted black again
What do u all think

Leave it until you see it with tan offroad bumpers.

My vote is to keep it copper, I think it would look cool if you could take the headlamps apart and paint them cooper on the insides as well. I think the Harley lights are throwing your "scheme" off a little, but I definately like the copper grill better than the black.

Maybe its the hood that needs replacing....LOL

Thanks for the feedback guys, maybe ill get use to it over time.
I really liked the black but i felt there were too many colors going on there, guess i will just have to wait & see what it looks like after the new bumpers are installed. If i still miss the black, i guess its back to the spray booth...

I agree with this. I believe the headlights are the only thing mixing it up now. I also think they would look painted copper like the grill.

Iam parking the 5'er for the last time this year
The copper grille is growing on me,
I think what iam goin to do now is order some Fusion or RoadArmor bumpers in "black" also ill be covering the Beige/Tan painted bottom in Line-X (spray on bed liner) & ill have to replace or re-color the Tan bed-rail & running board Plastics w/black.
Basically everything now in Tan would be changed to Black
What do u guys think about that
Edit: posting this reminded me to update my Signature pic

My opinion is dont do the black...it will look outta place, unless you intend to paint the flares and lower tan portion black as well.
I say stick to your original plan and order the tan bumpers and maybe look into doing some cooper in the head lamps and I think you will have 1 great looking truck.
Again just my ..02

grille color matched looks great! I'm not liking the headlights if you have the stock headlights give them a try and see how that looks
not a fan of the black grille at all

Switch back to the original headlights and it'll be perfect. If you add an aftermarket bumper, have it bedlined or painted to match the King Ranch tan. Don't abandon the KR scheme!

And I vote to Black out the tan and Copper fill the headlights!!
Might be best to buy some aftermarket headlamps and play with them - if you're happy with the results, sell the harley's.
