Default Stock Firehawk grills plastic?

I just picked one up and it had some metal grills with paint coming off so i'm looking to get some stock black ones...does anyone know if they are metal or plastic? If they are metal then i will just repaint these matte black and put them back on, if not...i want stock ones.

If someone has stock ones I'd like to trade.

You can still buy OE grills at SLPOnline.

You will have a hard time finding the hood heat extractor grills tho.

Yeah, i saw them on there and can't tell if they are actually plastic or metal. And...i'd rather not spend 150+ for the set

^^^Yeah, probably, some type of metal. I already repainted them matte black with a few layers of matte clear and they are going back on the car.
