Rear light guards yes...but very few powdercoat companies will warranty powdercoat over chrome. You could strip the chrome and take them down to bare metal or take your chances with the powder over chrome.

Front grill is a big no...it's chromed plastic and I doubt the grill would hold up to the baking process for the powder. Best bet on that one is to scuff it and paint it, scuff it and use spray on bedliner or have it Line-X'ed or just buy a black one from the dealer/eBay.
